OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 12 years ago from Austin and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in Cedar Grove. It's surprisingly good for what you get.

Jobs: The market is wild right now, especially in legal. If you're in healthcare you might struggle.

People: Generally solid. It took about 3 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: better than expected. Tons of options if you like Indian.

Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
