OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 13 years ago from Atlanta and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Cedar Grove. It's average for what you get.

Jobs: The market is developing right now, especially in hospitality. If you're in tech you might struggle.

People: Generally surprisingly good. It took about 17 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: hit or miss. Tons of options if you like Indian.

No regrets on my end..

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want weather, then yeah this place is great. But if school system matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.
