OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 10 years ago from Raleigh and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Lots of new construction which should help. We're paying /mo for a 4-bed in Old Town. It's challenging for what you get.

Jobs: The market is reasonable right now, especially in finance. If you're in education you might struggle.

People: Generally improving. It took about 11 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: tough. Tons of options if you like Asian.

Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a project manager who relocated here from San Francisco about 12 years ago. The main reasons were work and quality of life.

Pros I've experienced:
- Affordable housing options
- Strong sense of community
- Lots of family-friendly activities

Cons that are real:
- Property taxes are high
- Chain restaurants dominate

Financially, we've found it surprisingly good compared to where we came from. Lots of new construction which should help. Groceries are wild, gas is excellent.

Socially, the quality of life is solid. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
