Raising a family in Graham -thoughts?
Curious what people think. I'm a college student here and With a population of 17,537, Graham is a small town. Household incomes average around $54,783 in Graham. Median household income is $54,783, which feels on the lower side for the area. Rent is about $990/month for a decent place. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting.
Pros:
- Good job market
- Good schools
- Lots of new development
- Good healthcare facilities
- Walkable downtown
Cons:
- Lack of diversity
- Mosquitoes and humidity
- Limited cultural events
