Housing market in Golden Glades right now

So, Crime rate is something to consider -Golden Glades sits at 938.2 per 100K. Am I wrong here?

As someone who grew up here, I genuinely enjoy living here. A lot has changed in the past few years though. community vibe used to be much wild but now it's average.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem pretty good.

I've been here 2 years and I genuinely enjoy living here. The thing nobody mentions is cultural scene. It's pricey and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the public transit is legit. And if you're into golfing, this place is underrated.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Greenfield side vs the South side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Would recommend to anyone considering it..

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 4-bedroom. it's not perfect but it works for me. Compared to Minneapolis it's solid.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a HR manager who relocated here from Chicago about 14 years ago. The main reasons were weather and a fresh start.

Pros I've experienced:
- Good schools in most areas
- Lots of new development happening
- Diverse dining options

Cons that are real:
- Not very walkable outside downtown
- Dating scene is rough

Financially, we've found it hit or miss compared to where we came from. If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. Groceries are growing, gas is solid.

Socially, there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Feel free to reach out with questions..
