Thinking about relocating to Carnot-Moon from Tampa
Longtime lurker here, I relocated for work and The unemployment rate is 3.5%, which is pretty low. It's a a small town city with about 13,639 people. The median home value here is around $256,600, which seems about average. Rent is about $1,178/month for a decent place. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Let me know your thoughts. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The weather takes some getting used to. Property taxes are high but you get good services. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The city has invested a lot in new development. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much.

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. it's not perfect but it works for me. Internet is hit or miss in most areas.

My experience has been mostly positive. it exceeded my expectations. The only thing I'd watch out for is traffic. Other than that, Would recommend to anyone considering it..

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, I'm still on the fence after all this time. Good luck with whatever you decide..

Public transit is better than expected here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it's exactly what I was looking for.
