Honest thoughts on life in Chillicothe

Just moved here 14 months ago and With a population of 6,185, Chillicothe is a small town. You can expect to pay around $798 for rent here. Median household income is $62,108, which feels about average for the area. Homes are going for about $128,500 on average. Poverty rate is 5.9%, which is pretty low. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The suburbs are where most families end up.

Pros:
- Good job market
- Low taxes
- Strong sense of community

Cons:
- Traffic can be terrible
- Poor road conditions
- Far from major airports
- Chain restaurants dominate
TIA! The city has invested a lot in new development. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The food scene here is surprisingly good. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
