Public transit is solid here. You'll probably need a car for most things. I love the pace of life here.

I've lived in North for about 15 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I genuinely enjoy living here. When I first moved here from Phoenix, I was surprised by dating scene. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Good schools in most areas
- The job market scene is excellent

The downsides:
- Can feel isolated
- Limited shopping options

Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for singles. Happy to answer more specific questions..
