Moving to Collins -what should I know?

Longtime lurker here, The median home value here is around $90,400, which is actually reasonable. Median household income is $35,946, which feels on the lower side for the area. Average temperature is around 66--F, so the weather is moderate. Crime rate is something to consider -Collins sits at 44.9 per 100K. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The weather takes some getting used to. Property taxes are high but you get good services. What neighborhoods would you suggest? It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The city has invested a lot in new development. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 1-bedroom. I genuinely enjoy living here. Compared to Salt Lake City it's excellent.

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are solid, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.
