Living in Claiborne -the reality
I'm a 27-year-old pharmacist and It's a a small town city with about 12,647 people. With a population of 12,647, Claiborne is a small town. The unemployment rate is 1.3%, which is pretty low. The median home value here is around $214,100, which is actually reasonable. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting.
Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Friendly people
- Low crime in most areas
Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Limited dining options
- Far from major airports
