First post here. I'm a college student here and Average temperature is around 50--F, so expect cold winters. Homes are going for about $350,500 on average. Median household income is $130,479, which feels pretty solid for the area. You can expect to pay around $1,857 for rent here. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The suburbs are where most families end up. The weather takes some getting used to. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.

Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.
