I relocated for work and The median home value here is around $280,500, which seems about average. With a population of 22,685, Crystal is a small town. Average temperature is around 46--F, so expect cold winters. Median household income is $86,752, which feels pretty solid for the area. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.
