Not sure if this has been asked before, but Rent is about $741/month for a decent place. Median household income is $60,114, which feels about average for the area. Average temperature is around 48--F, so expect cold winters. The median home value here is around $171,300, which is actually reasonable. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The food scene here is surprisingly good. What neighborhoods would you suggest? Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The suburbs are where most families end up. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Property taxes are high but you get good services.
