Anyone else love living in Eagle Mountain?

I'm single, late 20s, and Median household income is $105,576, which feels pretty solid for the area. Crime rate is something to consider -Eagle Mountain sits at 53.9 per 100K. The unemployment rate is 2.4%, which is pretty low. Homes are going for about $469,500 on average. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The city has invested a lot in new development. Property taxes are high but you get good services.

I've lived in Old Town for about 10 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

it's exactly what I was looking for. When I first moved here from Miami, I was surprised by cultural scene. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:

- Growing food and restaurant scene

- Good airport with direct flights

- The cost of living scene is challenging

The downsides:

- Rising rent and home prices

- Not a lot of cultural diversity

Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for families. It's not for everyone but it works for us..
