Curious what people think. Born and raised here. The unemployment rate is 3.1%, which is pretty low. Poverty rate is 16.0%, which is higher than I expected. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The suburbs are where most families end up. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Has anyone dealt with this? Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The city has invested a lot in new development. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.
