Rent in Centennial getting crazy
Not sure if this has been asked before, but I'm single, late 20s, and Crime rate is something to consider -Centennial sits at 132.1 per 100K. It's a a mid-size city city with about 107K people. The unemployment rate is 2.5%, which is pretty low. Rent is about $2,061/month for a decent place. Household incomes average around $128,167 in Centennial. The weather takes some getting used to. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The city has invested a lot in new development.
Pros:
- Low taxes
- Lots of new development
- Plenty of shopping options
Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Hot summers
- Poor road conditions
- Limited cultural events
- Chain restaurants dominate
