Is Arlington Heights worth moving to in 2026?

Alright, Household incomes average around $118,532 in Arlington Heights. Rent is about $1,727/month for a decent place. Average temperature is around 51--F, so expect cold winters. It's a a smaller city city with about 76,220 people. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The city has invested a lot in new development. Should I be concerned? Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The suburbs are where most families end up. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

I've been living here for 4 years and I'd say I have mixed feelings honestly. The safety is hit or miss compared to other places I've lived. Overall Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
