Anyone else feel this way? Median household income is $109,390, which feels pretty solid for the area. The unemployment rate is 2.6%, which is pretty low. It's a a smaller city city with about 70,244 people. Rent is about $2,650/month for a decent place. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Any advice would be great. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The suburbs are where most families end up. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The weather takes some getting used to. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.
