OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 1 years ago from Charlotte and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in Westside. It's excellent for what you get.
Jobs: The market is established right now, especially in engineering. If you're in education you might struggle.
People: Generally solid. It took about 15 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: better than expected. Tons of options if you like craft beer.
Give it a chance - it might surprise you..

I'm a real estate agent and I've found I'm still on the fence after all this time. The community is surprisingly good and there's always something going on.
