Just moved to Goshen, any tips?

Alright, Been living here since 2020. Median household income is $99,464, which feels pretty solid for the area. Rent is about $1,693/month for a decent place. With a population of 5,751, Goshen is a small town. Average temperature is around 50--F, so expect cold winters. The city has invested a lot in new development. The suburbs are where most families end up. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Should I be concerned? The city has invested a lot in new development. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem improving.

I've been here 13 years and it was the best decision I ever made. The thing nobody mentions is cultural scene. It's competitive and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the healthcare is legit. And if you're into fishing, this place is excellent.

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

It's not for everyone but it works for us..

Weather-wise, the summers are solid and winters are affordable. You get used to it after the first year.
