Job hunting in Alameda -tips?

OK so I'm single, late 40s, and Homes are going for about $1,203,900 on average. Rent is about $2,394/month for a decent place. The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. What do you all think? It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.

I've lived in Old Town for about 15 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. When I first moved here from New York, I was surprised by job market. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Good healthcare facilities
- Good internet infrastructure
- The job market scene is average

The downsides:
- Summers can be brutally hot
- Dating scene is rough

Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for young professionals. Hope this helps!.
