Bought a house here in 2017 and I genuinely enjoy living here. Property values have gone up a bit since then.

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.
If you value nightlife, you'll love it. The pet-friendliness is genuinely average and I've found there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. My neighborhood (Highland) is affordable and I feel safe walking around at night.
But if you're coming from Raleigh, be prepared for the culture shock. cultural scene is completely different here. And Rising rent and home prices.
My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.

As someone who grew up here, I genuinely enjoy living here. A lot has changed in the past few years though. cost of living used to be much pricey but now it's underrated.

I've been living here for 13 years and I'd say I genuinely enjoy living here. The cultural scene is improving compared to other places I've lived. Overall No regrets on my end..
