Brock Hall quality of life -am I missing something?

Random thought, Homes are going for about $605,700 on average. Poverty rate is 2.0%, which is pretty low. Household incomes average around $190,896 in Brock Hall. It's a a small town city with about 13,400 people. You can expect to pay around $3,138 for rent here. The weather takes some getting used to. Property taxes are high but you get good services. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.

Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Close to nature
- Low taxes
- Easy commute

Cons:
- Hot summers
- Poor road conditions
- Chain restaurants dominate
- Homelessness issues downtown
- Not enough green space
What do you all think? The suburbs are where most families end up. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.

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

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 6 years ago from Portland and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Downtown. It's excellent for what you get.

Jobs: The market is wild right now, especially in tech. If you're in marketing you might struggle.

People: Generally average. It took about 3 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: pretty good. Tons of options if you like Mexican.

Happy to answer more specific questions..
