Job hunting in Fair Lawn -tips?

Random thought, We have two kids and The unemployment rate is 3.2%, which is pretty low. With a population of 35,153, Fair Lawn is a smaller city. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Is this normal for Fair Lawn? People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.

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

I'm a HR manager who relocated here from Houston about 2 years ago. The main reasons were my partner's job and school.

Pros I've experienced:
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Affordable housing options
- Diverse dining options

Cons that are real:
- Not very walkable outside downtown
- Chain restaurants dominate

Financially, we've found it decent compared to where we came from. The market is competitive but not impossible. Groceries are reasonable, gas is surprisingly good.

Socially, I genuinely enjoy living here. Hope this helps!.

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is food scene. it's been a really good experience overall. Worth doing your research before committing.
