I'm a teacher here and Homes are going for about $278,200 on average. Rent is about $1,120/month for a decent place. With a population of 51,492, Harrisonburg is a smaller city. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The city has invested a lot in new development. The weather takes some getting used to. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.
