Hey, Median household income is $56,565, which feels about average for the area. Has anyone dealt with this? Thanks for reading.

I've lived in Highland for about 9 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it was the best decision I ever made. When I first moved here from Atlanta, I was surprised by weather. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Strong job market in several industries
- Lots of new development happening
- The housing market scene is decent
The downsides:
- Traffic during rush hour is rough
- Far from beaches/mountains
Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for couples. Definitely worth checking out..

Bought a house here in 2017 and the quality of life is solid. Property values have gone down slightly since then.

Public transit is solid here. You'll probably need a car for most things. I'm still on the fence after all this time.

Came here for a fresh start and stayed because I genuinely enjoy living here. The job market is honestly pretty good and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

I've lived in Fairview for about 3 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it was the best decision I ever made. When I first moved here from Denver, I was surprised by cost of living. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Good internet infrastructure
- Diverse dining options
- The cost of living scene is average
The downsides:
- Nightlife is limited
- Homeless population growing downtown
Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for retirees. No regrets on my end..
