What I wish I knew before living in Bloomfield
Hey everyone, The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Is this normal for Bloomfield?

I've lived in North for about 3 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it's not perfect but it works for me. When I first moved here from Dallas, I was surprised by community vibe. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Growing food and restaurant scene
- Strong job market in several industries
- The cultural scene scene is pretty good
The downsides:
- Winters are long and cold
- Limited high-paying job options
Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for young professionals. Would recommend to anyone considering it..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 7 years ago from Minneapolis and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in Uptown. It's excellent for what you get.
Jobs: The market is manageable right now, especially in consulting. If you're in education you might struggle.
People: Generally average. It took about 12 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: underrated. Tons of options if you like Korean.
Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
