Why I chose Candler-McAfee over bigger cities
Curious what people think. I'm single, late 50s, and The median home value here is around $239,400, which is actually reasonable. Household incomes average around $62,299 in Candler-McAfee. Rent is about $1,408/month for a decent place. It's a a small town city with about 21,316 people. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
Pros:
- Growing food scene
- Diverse community
- Easy commute
- Lots of new development
- Plenty of shopping options
Cons:
- Cold winters
- Rising rent prices
- Lack of diversity
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Boring for young people
