Crime rate is something to consider -Duluth sits at 93.6 per 100K. Average temperature is around 60--F, so the weather is moderate. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. What are your go-to spots? The weather takes some getting used to. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 15 years ago from Chicago and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in Eastside. It's better than expected for what you get.
Jobs: The market is pricey right now, especially in real estate. If you're in construction you might struggle.
People: Generally hit or miss. It took about 7 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: excellent. Tons of options if you like Thai.
Hope this helps!.
