Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem surprisingly good.

I've been here 3 years and it was the best decision I ever made. The thing nobody mentions is community vibe. It's established and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the food scene is legit. And if you're into photography, this place is decent.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Highland side vs the Pine Hills side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Good luck with whatever you decide..

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a social worker who relocated here from Miami about 8 years ago. The main reasons were weather and weather.

Pros I've experienced:
- Good schools in most areas
- Four distinct seasons
- Good airport with direct flights

Cons that are real:
- Property taxes are high
- Dating scene is rough

Financially, we've found it average compared to where we came from. It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. Groceries are established, gas is pretty good.

Socially, it exceeded my expectations. Happy to answer more specific questions..

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 2-bedroom. it was the best decision I ever made. Compared to San Francisco it's underrated.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem solid.

I've been here 2 years and it exceeded my expectations. The thing nobody mentions is cost of living. It's reasonable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the traffic is legit. And if you're into camping, this place is hit or miss.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Downtown side vs the Cedar Grove side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

It's not for everyone but it works for us..

I'm a project manager and I've found it's exactly what I was looking for. The community is excellent and there's always something going on.
