Anyone work in healthcare in Bloomington?

Anyone else feel this way? I'm a teacher here and Crime rate is something to consider -Bloomington sits at 353.9 per 100K. Worth the trade-offs?

I've lived in Riverside for about 7 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. When I first moved here from Boston, I was surprised by walkability. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- Strong job market in several industries
- The safety scene is improving

The downsides:
- Rising rent and home prices
- Far from beaches/mountains

Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for families. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
