Hey, With a population of 1,107, Germantown is a small town. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want pet-friendliness, then yeah this place is great. But if job market matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 3 years ago from Denver 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 East. It's tough for what you get.
Jobs: The market is developing right now, especially in engineering. If you're in tech you might struggle.
People: Generally decent. It took about 14 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: surprisingly good. Tons of options if you like Korean.
No regrets on my end..

Hot take but it's exactly what I was looking for. I know a lot of people disagree but after 10 years here, that's my honest assessment.

Moved here from San Francisco about 8 years ago. I'm still on the fence after all this time. Still getting used to cultural scene but It's not for everyone but it works for us..

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are excellent, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.
