Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a social worker who relocated here from LA about 2 years ago. The main reasons were weather and work.
Pros I've experienced:
- Good schools in most areas
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Decent public transit for the size
Cons that are real:
- Rising rent and home prices
- Limited high-paying job options
Financially, we've found it hit or miss compared to where we came from. It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. Groceries are competitive, gas is surprisingly good.
Socially, I genuinely enjoy living here. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
