Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a real estate agent who relocated here from Boston about 4 years ago. The main reasons were family and my partner's job.

Pros I've experienced:
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- Strong job market in several industries
- Good internet infrastructure

Cons that are real:
- Not a lot of cultural diversity
- Dating scene is rough

Financially, we've found it hit or miss compared to where we came from. Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. Groceries are stable, gas is average.

Socially, I'm still on the fence after all this time. Hope this helps!.
