Random thought, Household incomes average around $54,020 in Green Level. It's a a small town city with about 3,179 people. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Has anyone dealt with this?

Came here for weather and stayed because it's been a really good experience overall. The weather is honestly tough and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

I've lived in East for about 13 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it exceeded my expectations. When I first moved here from San Francisco, I was surprised by healthcare. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Lots of new development happening
- Four distinct seasons
- The cultural scene scene is better than expected
The downsides:
- Rising rent and home prices
- Homeless population growing downtown
Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for singles. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..

I'm a chef and I've found I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The community is surprisingly good and there's always something going on.

Used to live on the Cedar Grove side, now on the Pine Hills side. Completely different vibe. I genuinely enjoy living here.

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.
If you value public transit, you'll love it. The safety is genuinely challenging and I've found I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. My neighborhood (Meadowbrook) is manageable and I feel safe walking around at night.
But if you're coming from San Diego, be prepared for the culture shock. walkability is completely different here. And Homeless population growing downtown.
My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.
