Is Clifton walkable?

Been meaning to ask this. My family moved here when I was a kid. You can expect to pay around $1,658 for rent here. It's a a smaller city city with about 89,247 people. The suburbs are where most families end up. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Worth the trade-offs? Property taxes are high but you get good services. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The weather takes some getting used to. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

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

I'm a lawyer who relocated here from Dallas about 15 years ago. The main reasons were a fresh start and work.

Pros I've experienced:
- Decent public transit for the size
- Good internet infrastructure
- Diverse dining options

Cons that are real:
- Not very walkable outside downtown
- Can feel isolated

Financially, we've found it underrated compared to where we came from. Older homes are where the value is. Groceries are developing, gas is improving.

Socially, the quality of life is solid. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want safety, then yeah this place is great. But if cultural scene matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.
