Hi all, Military spouse here. Rent is about $1,141/month for a decent place. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Would love some local perspective.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a electrician who relocated here from Phoenix about 15 years ago. The main reasons were my partner's job and school.
Pros I've experienced:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Good schools in most areas
- Active local events and festivals
Cons that are real:
- Winters are long and cold
- Urban sprawl is real
Financially, we've found it improving compared to where we came from. Lots of new construction which should help. Groceries are growing, gas is excellent.
Socially, it's exactly what I was looking for. Hope this helps!.
