Why I chose Batavia over bigger cities

We're a young couple and The median home value here is around $191,200, which is actually reasonable. You can expect to pay around $903 for rent here. Rent is about $903/month for a decent place. Median household income is $58,911, which feels about average for the area. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The suburbs are where most families end up. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting.

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are surprisingly good, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.
