Why I chose Edgecliff Village over bigger cities

First post here. Just moved here 14 months ago and Crime rate is something to consider -Edgecliff Village sits at 444.0 per 100K. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Let me know your thoughts.

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.

If you value school system, you'll love it. The community vibe is genuinely pretty good and I've found I have mixed feelings honestly. My neighborhood (Lakewood) is wild and I feel safe walking around at night.

But if you're coming from LA, be prepared for the culture shock. dating scene is completely different here. And Not very walkable outside downtown.

My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.

The food scene here is surprisingly good. Tons of great Asian places. it's not perfect but it works for me.

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want pet-friendliness, then yeah this place is great. But if traffic matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.
