Should I move to Farmington Hills or stay in Atlanta?

I relocated for work and With a population of 83,316, Farmington Hills is a smaller city. You can expect to pay around $1,475 for rent here. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 7 years ago from San Francisco and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Old Town. It's better than expected for what you get.

Jobs: The market is manageable right now, especially in education. If you're in manufacturing you might struggle.

People: Generally surprisingly good. It took about 14 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: pretty good. Tons of options if you like seafood.

Definitely worth checking out..

Came here for weather and stayed because it's improved dramatically in recent years. The traffic is honestly tough and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
