First post here. I work in consulting and Rent is about $2,341/month for a decent place. Homes are going for about $1,019,400 on average. Crime rate is something to consider -Haiku-Pauwela sits at 232.1 per 100K. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The city has invested a lot in new development. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The weather takes some getting used to. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.
