Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 3-bedroom. it's been a really good experience overall. Compared to Seattle it's better than expected.

I've lived in West for about 8 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
the quality of life is solid. When I first moved here from San Diego, I was surprised by cost of living. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- The cultural scene scene is challenging
The downsides:
- Winters are long and cold
- Chain restaurants dominate
Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for singles. Feel free to reach out with questions..
