Why I chose Cave Springs over bigger cities
First post here. Household incomes average around $147,917 in Cave Springs. Rent is about $2,081/month for a decent place. It's a a small town city with about 5,778 people. You can expect to pay around $2,081 for rent here. Poverty rate is 1.9%, which is pretty low. The suburbs are where most families end up. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
Pros:
- Nice parks and trails
- Low crime in most areas
- Active local events
Cons:
- Sprawl everywhere
- High property taxes
- Mosquitoes and humidity
- Limited cultural events
- Not enough green space
Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The suburbs are where most families end up.
