What I wish I knew before living in Danville

OK so I grew up here but left for a while. The unemployment rate is 1.2%, which is pretty low. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Am I wrong here?

Public transit is challenging here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it's not perfect but it works for me.

I've lived in Midtown for about 9 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

it's not perfect but it works for me. When I first moved here from Houston, I was surprised by healthcare. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Growing food and restaurant scene
- Active local events and festivals
- The healthcare scene is hit or miss

The downsides:
- Nightlife is limited
- Not very walkable outside downtown

Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for young professionals. Definitely worth checking out..

I work in healthcare here and it exceeded my expectations. The job market for my field is improving. It's not for everyone but it works for us..
