The good and bad of living in Findlay

I'm retired and Crime rate is something to consider -Findlay sits at 256.4 per 100K. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Does this match your experience? TIA! It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Property taxes are high but you get good services.

I've lived in West for about 6 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I love the pace of life here. When I first moved here from Salt Lake City, I was surprised by walkability. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Good internet infrastructure
- The housing market scene is excellent

The downsides:
- Traffic during rush hour is rough
- Winters are long and cold

Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for couples. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

As someone who grew up here, I'm still on the fence after all this time. A lot has changed in the past few years though. safety used to be much growing but now it's challenging.
