OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 1 years ago from Charlotte and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: Lots of new construction which should help. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in Pine Hills. It's excellent for what you get.
Jobs: The market is stable right now, especially in engineering. If you're in finance you might struggle.
People: Generally underrated. It took about 9 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: average. Tons of options if you like Asian.
Give it a chance - it might surprise you..

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want pet-friendliness, then yeah this place is great. But if food scene matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 7 years ago from Portland and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in East. It's hit or miss for what you get.
Jobs: The market is reasonable right now, especially in consulting. If you're in retail you might struggle.
People: Generally tough. It took about 16 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: solid. Tons of options if you like Vietnamese.
Feel free to reach out with questions..

Bought a house here in 2016 and there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Property values have gone about the same since then.

We moved here with our family and it's exactly what I was looking for. Schools in East area are excellent. Kids love it here.
