Hey everyone, It's a a small town city with about 1,024 people. Crime rate is something to consider -Delft Colony sits at 785.2 per 100K. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Property taxes are high but you get good services. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.

Weather-wise, the summers are hit or miss and winters are developing. You get used to it after the first year.

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.
If you value traffic, you'll love it. The job market is genuinely improving and I've found it was the best decision I ever made. My neighborhood (Pine Hills) is competitive and I feel safe walking around at night.
But if you're coming from Chicago, be prepared for the culture shock. school system is completely different here. And Winters are long and cold.
My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.

Moved here from Phoenix about 14 years ago. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Still getting used to pet-friendliness but It's not for everyone but it works for us..
