Housing market in Fishers right now

Anyone else feel this way? Crime rate is something to consider -Fishers sits at 53.4 per 100K. The unemployment rate is 2.1%, which is pretty low. You can expect to pay around $1,491 for rent here. Average temperature is around 55--F, so expect cold winters. Rent is about $1,491/month for a decent place. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.

Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Diverse community
- Low taxes
- Plenty of shopping options

Cons:
- Sprawl everywhere
- Poor road conditions
- Chain restaurants dominate
- Homelessness issues downtown

As someone who grew up here, it's exactly what I was looking for. A lot has changed in the past few years though. cost of living used to be much growing but now it's pretty good.

We moved here with our family and I have mixed feelings honestly. Schools in South area are better than expected. Kids love it here.
