Raising a family in Farmington -thoughts?

I'm a teacher here and Median household income is $118,556, which feels pretty solid for the area. Poverty rate is 2.2%, which is pretty low. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. TIA! Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The suburbs are where most families end up. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. it was the best decision I ever made. Internet is average in most areas.

Weather-wise, the summers are solid and winters are established. You get used to it after the first year.

We moved here with our family and there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Schools in Maple Ridge area are surprisingly good. Kids love it here.
