Cheapest neighborhoods in Albany?
OK so It's a a mid-size city city with about 100K people. Poverty rate is 13.1%, which is around average. Crime rate is something to consider -Albany sits at 757.0 per 100K. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.
Pros:
- Nice parks and trails
- Low crime in most areas
- Close to nature
- Low taxes
- Good internet infrastructure
Cons:
- Hot summers
- Not very walkable
- High property taxes
- Poor road conditions
