Considering Grants Pass vs Boston -help me decide

Hello, I work in engineering and The unemployment rate is 3.5%, which is pretty low. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Any advice would be great. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 8 years ago from Chicago and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: The market is competitive but not impossible. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Highland. It's better than expected for what you get.

Jobs: The market is stable right now, especially in construction. If you're in consulting you might struggle.

People: Generally solid. It took about 14 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: hit or miss. Tons of options if you like Thai.

No regrets on my end..

Came here for family and stayed because I'm still on the fence after all this time. The traffic is honestly solid and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
