OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 6 years ago from Charlotte and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in Greenfield. It's hit or miss for what you get.

Jobs: The market is wild right now, especially in government. If you're in manufacturing you might struggle.

People: Generally pretty good. It took about 13 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: hit or miss. Tons of options if you like Southern.

Hope this helps!.

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

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 7 years ago from New York and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in Lakewood. It's tough for what you get.

Jobs: The market is competitive right now, especially in finance. If you're in hospitality you might struggle.

People: Generally average. It took about 4 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: average. Tons of options if you like farm-to-table.

Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
