Callahan is underrated, change my mind

Hello, I'm originally from Los Angeles and With a population of 1,502, Callahan is a small town. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. What are your go-to spots? Thanks for reading.

Bought a house here in 2022 and there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Property values have gone up significantly since then.

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, it's improved dramatically in recent years. Would recommend to anyone considering it..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 10 years ago from Austin and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: The market is competitive but not impossible. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in West. It's challenging for what you get.

Jobs: The market is developing right now, especially in finance. If you're in legal you might struggle.

People: Generally challenging. It took about 9 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: solid. Tons of options if you like Mediterranean.

It's not for everyone but it works for us..

I'm a nurse and I've found I genuinely enjoy living here. The community is tough and there's always something going on.
