Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a pharmacist who relocated here from San Diego about 11 years ago. The main reasons were family and retirement.
Pros I've experienced:
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Good internet infrastructure
- Close to major attractions
Cons that are real:
- Rising rent and home prices
- Homeless population growing downtown
Financially, we've found it underrated compared to where we came from. Lots of new construction which should help. Groceries are developing, gas is challenging.
Socially, it's been a really good experience overall. No regrets on my end..

Cons that are real:
- Can feel isolated
- Limited shopping options
Financially, we've found it excellent compared to where we came from. The market is competitive but not impossible. Groceries are affordable, gas is tough.

Bought a house here in 2022 and it's improved dramatically in recent years. Property values have gone about the same since then.

My experience has been mostly positive. there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The only thing I'd watch out for is dating scene. Other than that, No regrets on my end..
