Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem better than expected.

I've been here 7 years and it's not perfect but it works for me. The thing nobody mentions is nightlife. It's reasonable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the safety is legit. And if you're into golfing, this place is better than expected.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The West side vs the Eastside side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Hope this helps!.
