Ellettsville vs Charlotte -which is better?

Not sure if this has been asked before, but I'm a teacher here and Crime rate is something to consider -Ellettsville sits at 148.6 per 100K. Rent is about $746/month for a decent place. It's a a small town city with about 6,653 people. Average temperature is around 53--F, so expect cold winters. The city has invested a lot in new development. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.

Pros:
- Low crime in most areas
- Close to nature
- Easy commute
- Lots of new development

Cons:
- Limited dining options
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Mosquitoes and humidity
- Far from major airports
- Limited cultural events
I'd say it's better for families than young singles. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.
