OK so I've been here for 19 years and Median household income is $47,310, which feels on the lower side for the area. Homes are going for about $178,900 on average. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Should I be concerned? Thanks!

Moved here from Salt Lake City about 1 years ago. there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Still getting used to traffic but Feel free to reach out with questions..

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a real estate agent who relocated here from Portland about 13 years ago. The main reasons were a fresh start and a fresh start.
Pros I've experienced:
- Decent public transit for the size
- Good internet infrastructure
- Diverse dining options
Cons that are real:
- Traffic during rush hour is rough
- Limited entertainment options
Financially, we've found it challenging compared to where we came from. Older homes are where the value is. Groceries are competitive, gas is challenging.
Socially, it's not perfect but it works for me. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
