Hey everyone, With a population of 84,538, Baytown is a smaller city. Crime rate is something to consider -Baytown sits at 418.2 per 100K. The median home value here is around $187,900, which is actually reasonable. Poverty rate is 15.1%, which is higher than I expected. Rent is about $1,217/month for a decent place. The city has invested a lot in new development. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much.
Pros:

- Limited dining options
- Poor road conditions
