Longtime lurker here, Military spouse here. Median household income is $67,448, which feels about average for the area. You can expect to pay around $785 for rent here. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. What neighborhoods would you suggest? The food scene here is surprisingly good. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.

I've lived in West for about 6 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. When I first moved here from Dallas, I was surprised by outdoor recreation. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Good schools in most areas
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- The safety scene is solid
The downsides:
- Not very walkable outside downtown
- Not a lot of cultural diversity
Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for couples. Hope this helps!.
