You can expect to pay around $805 for rent here. It's a a small town city with about 11,805 people. Rent is about $805/month for a decent place. Homes are going for about $284,100 on average. The median home value here is around $284,100, which seems about average. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.

Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Great weather
- Nice parks and trails

Cons:
- Hot summers
- Limited nightlife
- Not very walkable
- Poor road conditions
- Homelessness issues downtown
