I'm a nurse at the local hospital and Average temperature is around 64--F, so the weather is moderate. The unemployment rate is 6.2%, which is concerning. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The city has invested a lot in new development.

I'm a lawyer and I've found it's exactly what I was looking for. The community is solid and there's always something going on.

I've lived in Pine Hills for about 14 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I have mixed feelings honestly. When I first moved here from Minneapolis, I was surprised by public transit. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Good schools in most areas
- Active local events and festivals
- The walkability scene is average
The downsides:
- Nightlife is limited
- Bugs and humidity in summer
Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for retirees. Feel free to reach out with questions..

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

My experience has been mostly positive. it's not perfect but it works for me. The only thing I'd watch out for is nightlife. Other than that, It's not for everyone but it works for us..

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. it's improved dramatically in recent years. Internet is surprisingly good in most areas.

We moved here with our family and it's not perfect but it works for me. Schools in Highland area are tough. Kids love it here.

I've been living here for 4 years and I'd say it's been a really good experience overall. The walkability is improving compared to other places I've lived. Overall Definitely worth checking out..

Came here for school and stayed because it's exactly what I was looking for. The pet-friendliness is honestly decent and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
