Hey everyone, I'm a nurse at the local hospital and Average temperature is around 62--F, so the weather is moderate. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 2-bedroom. it exceeded my expectations. Compared to Minneapolis it's surprisingly good.

My experience has been mostly positive. I have mixed feelings honestly. The only thing I'd watch out for is nightlife. Other than that, Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

Public transit is pretty good here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it's exactly what I was looking for.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem surprisingly good.
I've been here 12 years and there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The thing nobody mentions is food scene. It's affordable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the cultural scene is legit. And if you're into photography, this place is pretty good.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Highland side vs the Meadowbrook side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

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

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem underrated.
I've been here 12 years and it's been a really good experience overall. The thing nobody mentions is housing market. It's affordable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the outdoor recreation is legit. And if you're into rock climbing, this place is underrated.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Riverside side vs the Pine Hills side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Hope this helps!.

Used to live on the South side, now on the Eastside side. Completely different vibe. I'm still on the fence after all this time.

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, the quality of life is solid. It's not for everyone but it works for us..

Weather-wise, the summers are improving and winters are wild. You get used to it after the first year.
