Co-working spaces in Aberdeen?

Not sure if this has been asked before, but Military spouse here. With a population of 28,297, Aberdeen is a smaller city. Rent is about $783/month for a decent place. Median household income is $63,715, which feels about average for the area. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. What neighborhoods would you suggest? Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The city has invested a lot in new development. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The food scene here is surprisingly good.

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is cost of living. it's not perfect but it works for me. Worth doing your research before committing.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 15 years ago from Houston and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in Eastside. It's hit or miss for what you get.

Jobs: The market is growing right now, especially in government. If you're in retail you might struggle.

People: Generally pretty good. It took about 15 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: solid. Tons of options if you like craft beer.

It's not for everyone but it works for us..
