So, Born and raised here. Average temperature is around 46--F, so expect cold winters. The weather takes some getting used to. Would love some local perspective. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.

As someone who grew up here, it was the best decision I ever made. A lot has changed in the past few years though. outdoor recreation used to be much reasonable but now it's excellent.

I've lived in Uptown for about 4 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
the quality of life is solid. When I first moved here from Phoenix, I was surprised by housing market. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- The nightlife scene is challenging
The downsides:
- Nightlife is limited
- Limited high-paying job options
Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for remote workers. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
