Biggest downsides of living in Corona?

The unemployment rate is 3.6%, which is pretty low. Rent is about $2,136/month for a decent place. The weather takes some getting used to. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Property taxes are high but you get good services.
Pros:

- Walkable downtown
Cons:
- Cold winters
- Sprawl everywhere
- Boring for young people
- Mosquitoes and humidity
- Chain restaurants dominate
