Gig Harbor vs Orlando -which is better?
I'm a teacher here and The unemployment rate is 1.4%, which is pretty low. Rent is about $2,097/month for a decent place. Household incomes average around $106,042 in Gig Harbor. The suburbs are where most families end up. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. The city has invested a lot in new development. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.
Pros:
- Friendly people
- Walkable downtown
- Active local events
Cons:
- Cold winters
- Rising rent prices
- Chain restaurants dominate
