Is Belle Rose getting better or worse?
Median household income is $101,184, which feels pretty solid for the area. The weather takes some getting used to. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.
Pros:
- Nice parks and trails
- Growing food scene
- Good schools
- Walkable downtown
- Active local events
Cons:
- Far from major airports
- Limited cultural events
- Chain restaurants dominate
