Moving to Atlantic City -what should I know?

Curious what people think. I'm a college student here and The unemployment rate is 7.5%, which is concerning. With a population of 38,486, Atlantic City is a smaller city. Crime rate is something to consider -Atlantic City sits at 859.2 per 100K. It's a a smaller city city with about 38,486 people. Homes are going for about $189,600 on average. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Is this normal for Atlantic City? Thanks! There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. The weather takes some getting used to. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The suburbs are where most families end up. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.
