Just moved to Council Bluffs, any tips?

Random thought, Military spouse here. You can expect to pay around $980 for rent here. The unemployment rate is 2.7%, which is pretty low. The median home value here is around $164,300, which is actually reasonable. The weather takes some getting used to. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Am I wrong here? There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The city has invested a lot in new development. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.
