Cheapest neighborhoods in Chesapeake?

Random thought, Military spouse here. Median household income is $94,189, which feels pretty solid for the area. Average temperature is around 62°F, so the weather is moderate. Rent is about $1,523/month for a decent place. It's a a mid-size city city with about 251K people. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Would love some local perspective. It's changing fast — some good, some not so much. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The weather takes some getting used to. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The suburbs are where most families end up. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.

Came here for work and stayed because I'm still on the fence after all this time. The weather is honestly surprisingly good and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
