I'm a teacher here and Rent is about $1,937/month for a decent place. The unemployment rate is 2.8%, which is pretty low. The weather takes some getting used to. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Let me know your thoughts. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.

I've been living here for 3 years and I'd say I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The safety is average compared to other places I've lived. Overall Would recommend to anyone considering it..
