As a 5-year resident, here are some things about Beaumont that don't make it into the guides:

1. The farmers market on Saturday mornings is incredible
2. The library system is phenomenal
3. The local craft beer scene is legit

Check out the Southside area. Way more affordable and still close to everything.

Rent tip: look for places in January-February. Prices drop and there's more availability.
