Best neighborhoods to rent in Dix Hills?

Hi all, We're a young couple and The median home value here is around $891,400, which is pretty steep. It's a a smaller city city with about 25,042 people. The weather takes some getting used to. Am I overthinking this? Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Property taxes are high but you get good services.

I've lived in Springfield for about 7 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I'm still on the fence after all this time. 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
- Growing food and restaurant scene
- The food scene scene is underrated

The downsides:
- Summers can be brutally hot
- Homeless population growing downtown

Overall I'd rate it 5/10 for retirees. Feel free to reach out with questions..
