Studio apartments in Carbondale -options?

First post here. I'm a teacher here and The unemployment rate is 3.3%, which is pretty low. Homes are going for about $118,800 on average. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Property taxes are high but you get good services. What neighborhoods would you suggest? Cheers. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The suburbs are where most families end up. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.

Bought a house here in 2017 and there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Property values have gone up significantly since then.
