Been meaning to ask this. I'm a college student here and The median home value here is around $262,000, which seems about average. Average temperature is around 73--F, so it's warm year-round. You can expect to pay around $1,416 for rent here. Household incomes average around $80,021 in Fuller Heights. Property taxes are high but you get good services. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The food scene here is surprisingly good.

Pros:
- Low crime in most areas
- Good schools
- Diverse community
- Active local events

Cons:
- Limited dining options
- Chain restaurants dominate
- Not enough green space
The city has invested a lot in new development. The food scene here is surprisingly good. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The weather takes some getting used to. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.
