Raising a family in Dover -thoughts?
First post here. I'm a remote worker and It's a a smaller city city with about 39,491 people. Rent is about $1,252/month for a decent place. Poverty rate is 14.5%, which is around average. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. The weather takes some getting used to. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.
Pros:
- Great weather
- Good job market
- Easy commute
Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Hot summers
- Cold winters
- Limited cultural events
Should I be concerned? The weather takes some getting used to. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The city has invested a lot in new development. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting.
