Pros and cons of Douglas after 14 years
Hello, My partner and I are Rent is about $704/month for a decent place. It's a a small town city with about 11,720 people. You can expect to pay around $704 for rent here. Household incomes average around $37,979 in Douglas. Homes are going for about $136,100 on average. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The suburbs are where most families end up. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.
Pros:
- Low crime in most areas
- Walkable downtown
- Plenty of shopping options
Cons:
- Limited dining options
- Poor road conditions
- Mosquitoes and humidity
- Far from major airports
- Limited cultural events
