Career opportunities in East Peoria, IL

OK so I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Appreciate any input. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a HR manager who relocated here from Dallas about 13 years ago. The main reasons were weather and my partner's job.

Pros I've experienced:
- Good schools in most areas
- Decent public transit for the size
- Strong sense of community

Cons that are real:
- Traffic during rush hour is rough
- Chain restaurants dominate

Financially, we've found it improving compared to where we came from. Older homes are where the value is. Groceries are stable, gas is underrated.

Socially, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
