Hey everyone, Just moved here 5 months ago and Median household income is $153,273, which feels pretty solid for the area. The median home value here is around $1,001,900, which is pretty steep. Household incomes average around $153,273 in Harrison. Average temperature is around 52--F, so expect cold winters. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Does this match your experience? The city has invested a lot in new development. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The suburbs are where most families end up.

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 1-bedroom. it was the best decision I ever made. Compared to Boston it's challenging.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem challenging.
I've been here 9 years and it's been a really good experience overall. The thing nobody mentions is weather. It's manageable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the traffic is legit. And if you're into surfing, this place is surprisingly good.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Springfield side vs the Oak Park side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
