Couple moving to Floral Park from out of state

I've lived in Westside for about 9 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. When I first moved here from Austin, I was surprised by pet-friendliness. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Strong job market in several industries
- Lots of new development happening
- The weather scene is hit or miss

The downsides:
- Rising rent and home prices
- Bugs and humidity in summer

Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for singles. Happy to answer more specific questions..

Hot take but I'm still on the fence after all this time. I know a lot of people disagree but after 11 years here, that's my honest assessment.

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, it was the best decision I ever made. No regrets on my end..
