With a population of 85,455, Auburn is a smaller city. Median household income is $95,367, which feels pretty solid for the area. Rent is about $1,713/month for a decent place. The median home value here is around $510,400, which is pretty steep. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Worth the trade-offs? Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The city has invested a lot in new development.
