The unemployment rate is 2.9%, which is pretty low. Average temperature is around 58--F, so the weather is moderate. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.

The suburbs are where most families end up. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
