Hey, Been living here since 2008. Rent is about $1,405/month for a decent place. The unemployment rate is 5.9%, which is about average. With a population of 148K, Bridgeport is a mid-size city. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Does this match your experience? The city has invested a lot in new development. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.
