Is it worth buying in Boone?

Hey everyone, You can expect to pay around $1,080 for rent here. The city has invested a lot in new development. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Has anyone dealt with this? Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

We moved here with our family and it was the best decision I ever made. Schools in Uptown area are excellent. Kids love it here.

Used to live on the Greenfield side, now on the Sunset side. Completely different vibe. I genuinely enjoy living here.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem average.

I've been here 11 years and it's exactly what I was looking for. The thing nobody mentions is traffic. It's reasonable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the school system is legit. And if you're into camping, this place is surprisingly good.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Uptown side vs the Midtown side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

It's not for everyone but it works for us..

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are tough, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.
