Is it worth buying in Bloomington?

Curious what people think. You can expect to pay around $1,160 for rent here. With a population of 78,791, Bloomington is a smaller city. Poverty rate is 13.0%, which is around average. Median household income is $48,918, which feels on the lower side for the area. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Worth the trade-offs? The weather takes some getting used to. The suburbs are where most families end up. The city has invested a lot in new development. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The city has invested a lot in new development. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Property taxes are high but you get good services. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.
