Just moved here 5 months ago and Median household income is $72,926, which feels about average for the area. Homes are going for about $326,300 on average. Poverty rate is 9.1%, which is pretty low. With a population of 22,265, Evans is a small town. The median home value here is around $326,300, which seems about average. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.

Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Nice parks and trails
- Lots of new development

Cons:
- Not very walkable
- High property taxes
- Lack of diversity
- Boring for young people
- Far from major airports
The suburbs are where most families end up. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Property taxes are high but you get good services. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.
