Dove Valley job market vs Kansas City

The unemployment rate is 2.9%, which is pretty low. Average temperature is around 50--F, so expect cold winters. Poverty rate is 11.7%, which is around average. Rent is about $1,892/month for a decent place. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The weather takes some getting used to. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. The suburbs are where most families end up. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
