Is Findlay a good place to live?

Hey everyone, I'm a college student here and It's a a smaller city city with about 40,280 people. The weather takes some getting used to. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The suburbs are where most families end up. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The suburbs are where most families end up.

Bought a house here in 2018 and I genuinely enjoy living here. Property values have gone down slightly since then.

I've been living here for 11 years and I'd say there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The housing market is pretty good compared to other places I've lived. Overall Would recommend to anyone considering it..

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

I'm a contractor who relocated here from Boston about 12 years ago. The main reasons were weather and a job opportunity.

Pros I've experienced:
- Good schools in most areas
- Four distinct seasons
- Diverse dining options

Cons that are real:
- Homeless population growing downtown
- Far from beaches/mountains

Financially, we've found it pretty good compared to where we came from. If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. Groceries are affordable, gas is excellent.

Socially, the quality of life is solid. It's not for everyone but it works for us..
