Hey folks, I'm retired and The unemployment rate is 2.5%, which is pretty low. The median home value here is around $212,500, which is actually reasonable. Average temperature is around 52--F, so expect cold winters. Rent is about $1,127/month for a decent place. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Let me know your thoughts. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much.
