Housing in Chester compared to Raleigh
Hey everyone, I'm originally from Raleigh and You can expect to pay around $1,080 for rent here. Homes are going for about $85,400 on average. Household incomes average around $39,809 in Chester. Crime rate is something to consider -Chester sits at 1,383.3 per 100K. The weather takes some getting used to. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
Pros:
- Friendly people
- Growing food scene
- Good schools
- Walkable downtown
Cons:
- Lack of diversity
- Far from major airports
- Limited cultural events
- Chain restaurants dominate
- Not enough green space
