Best neighborhoods to rent in Asheboro?

Longtime lurker here, My family moved here when I was a kid. Crime rate is something to consider -Asheboro sits at 260.8 per 100K. With a population of 27,353, Asheboro is a smaller city. It's a a smaller city city with about 27,353 people. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. What do you all think? The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The city has invested a lot in new development. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.

Came here for family and stayed because I genuinely enjoy living here. The safety is honestly hit or miss and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem challenging.

I've been here 14 years and I have mixed feelings honestly. The thing nobody mentions is cultural scene. It's wild and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the public transit is legit. And if you're into running, this place is hit or miss.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Cedar Grove side vs the Highland side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Would recommend to anyone considering it..
