Remote worker thinking about Highland City

William Mar 15, 2025

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 6 years ago from Seattle and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Fairview. It's improving for what you get.

Jobs: The market is pricey right now, especially in healthcare. If you're in consulting you might struggle.

People: Generally surprisingly good. It took about 9 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: pretty good. Tons of options if you like Thai.

Hope this helps!.
