Random thought, Born and raised here. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Has anyone dealt with this? The city has invested a lot in new development. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.

As someone who grew up here, I genuinely enjoy living here. A lot has changed in the past few years though. walkability used to be much affordable but now it's underrated.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 3 years ago from Atlanta and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in Highland. It's hit or miss for what you get.
Jobs: The market is reasonable right now, especially in education. If you're in government you might struggle.
People: Generally better than expected. It took about 15 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: underrated. Tons of options if you like Vietnamese.
