Relocating to Fort Mitchell, KY -pros and cons?

Anyone else feel this way? It's a a small town city with about 8,676 people. Crime rate is something to consider -Fort Mitchell sits at 84.8 per 100K. The unemployment rate is 1.8%, which is pretty low. Rent is about $987/month for a decent place. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Has anyone dealt with this? The weather takes some getting used to. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The weather takes some getting used to.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 14 years ago from New York and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. We're paying /mo for a 4-bed in Greenfield. It's solid for what you get.

Jobs: The market is established right now, especially in consulting. If you're in real estate you might struggle.

People: Generally average. It took about 10 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: average. Tons of options if you like Southern.

Happy to answer more specific questions..
