Homes are going for about $133,700 on average. Crime rate is something to consider -Charleston sits at 155.1 per 100K. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. What do you all think?

I'm a HR manager and I've found it's exactly what I was looking for. The community is hit or miss and there's always something going on.

Weather-wise, the summers are better than expected and winters are reasonable. You get used to it after the first year.

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are average, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem improving.
I've been here 6 years and it's not perfect but it works for me. The thing nobody mentions is housing market. It's reasonable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the cultural scene is legit. And if you're into skiing, this place is solid.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Highland side vs the East side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Good luck with whatever you decide..

We moved here with our family and it was the best decision I ever made. Schools in Westside area are better than expected. Kids love it here.

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. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
