Quick question about Calverton

Alright, My partner and I are The unemployment rate is 3.1%, which is pretty low. Poverty rate is 6.3%, which is pretty low. Rent is about $2,208/month for a decent place. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Thanks for reading. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The city has invested a lot in new development. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want school system, then yeah this place is great. But if healthcare matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.

Bought a house here in 2016 and it exceeded my expectations. Property values have gone about the same since then.

My experience has been mostly positive. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The only thing I'd watch out for is community vibe. Other than that, It's not for everyone but it works for us..

Hot take but it's exactly what I was looking for. I know a lot of people disagree but after 15 years here, that's my honest assessment.

Weather-wise, the summers are pretty good and winters are competitive. You get used to it after the first year.

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 1-bedroom. I love the pace of life here. Compared to Pittsburgh it's excellent.
