Appleton housing prices -when will it stop?
Just moved here 6 months ago and Household incomes average around $77,450 in Appleton. Poverty rate is 5.5%, which is pretty low. Crime rate is something to consider -Appleton sits at 275.6 per 100K. Median household income is $77,450, which feels about average for the area. The unemployment rate is 2.7%, which is pretty low. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.
Pros:
- Great weather
- Friendly people
- Lots of new development
- Strong sense of community
Cons:
- Hot summers
- High property taxes
- Chain restaurants dominate
