Hello, My family moved here when I was a kid. The median home value here is around $155,300, which is actually reasonable. Average temperature is around 50--F, so expect cold winters. It's a a small town city with about 2,246 people. Poverty rate is 1.3%, which is pretty low. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The city has invested a lot in new development. Any help is appreciated. The weather takes some getting used to. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.
