Longtime lurker here, I'm a college student here and The unemployment rate is 1.2%, which is pretty low. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Let me know your thoughts.

I'm a accountant and I've found the quality of life is solid. The community is underrated and there's always something going on.

I've lived in East for about 10 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I love the pace of life here. When I first moved here from San Diego, I was surprised by traffic. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- The cost of living scene is underrated
The downsides:
- Limited public transit options
- Limited high-paying job options
Overall I'd rate it 5/10 for young professionals. Feel free to reach out with questions..
