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

I've been here 13 years and I'm still on the fence after all this time. The thing nobody mentions is job market. It's established and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the walkability is legit. And if you're into mountain biking, this place is improving.

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

Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
