It's a a smaller city city with about 76,490 people. The unemployment rate is 2.2%, which is pretty low. You can expect to pay around $2,510 for rent here. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The city has invested a lot in new development.

Cons:
- Sprawl everywhere
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Far from major airports
- Chain restaurants dominate
- Homelessness issues downtown
Would love some local perspective. The food scene here is surprisingly good. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The suburbs are where most families end up. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The suburbs are where most families end up.

Bought a house here in 2016 and the quality of life is solid. Property values have gone down slightly since then.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 8 years ago from San Francisco and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Lots of new construction which should help. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in West. It's improving for what you get.

Jobs: The market is affordable right now, especially in education. If you're in manufacturing you might struggle.

People: Generally better than expected. It took about 17 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: improving. Tons of options if you like sushi.

Good luck with whatever you decide..
