OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 9 years ago from Chicago and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in Cedar Grove. It's improving for what you get.
Jobs: The market is established right now, especially in engineering. If you're in marketing you might struggle.
People: Generally tough. It took about 15 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: solid. Tons of options if you like Mexican.
Feel free to reach out with questions..
