Anyone regret moving to Highland?

Random thought, We're a young couple and Rent is about $1,539/month for a decent place. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Cheers. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.
