I've lived in South for about 2 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I genuinely enjoy living here. When I first moved here from Tampa, I was surprised by safety. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Good internet infrastructure
- The weather scene is decent
The downsides:
- Dating scene is rough
- Limited entertainment options
Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for couples. Feel free to reach out with questions..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 12 years ago from Seattle and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in Uptown. It's decent for what you get.
Jobs: The market is reasonable right now, especially in education. If you're in construction you might struggle.
People: Generally challenging. It took about 7 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: improving. Tons of options if you like Vietnamese.
Would recommend to anyone considering it..
