Studio apartments in Desert Hot Springs -options?
Hey folks, I'm retired and It's a a smaller city city with about 32,786 people. Crime rate is something to consider -Desert Hot Springs sits at 876.1 per 100K. Homes are going for about $309,300 on average. You can expect to pay around $1,339 for rent here. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.
Pros:
- Good job market
- Good schools
- Easy commute
- Strong sense of community
- Plenty of shopping options
Cons:
- Hot summers
- Rising rent prices
- Limited nightlife
- Limited dining options
