The good and bad of living in Goldthwaite
Hey, The unemployment rate is 3.6%, which is pretty low. Crime rate is something to consider -Goldthwaite sits at 129.1 per 100K. The median home value here is around $115,900, which is actually reasonable. Homes are going for about $115,900 on average. Rent is about $714/month for a decent place. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The weather takes some getting used to.
Pros:

- Good job market
- Growing food scene
- Low crime in most areas
- Plenty of shopping options
Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Cold winters
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Poor road conditions
