It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem pretty good.

I've been here 8 years and the quality of life is solid. The thing nobody mentions is public transit. It's stable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the healthcare is legit. And if you're into mountain biking, this place is average.

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

Hope this helps!.
