Should I move to Highland or stay in Memphis?

Hello, I'm a remote worker and Poverty rate is 1.7%, which is pretty low. Median household income is $178,662, which feels pretty solid for the area. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. What are your go-to spots? Cheers. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are tough, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 2-bedroom. I'm still on the fence after all this time. Compared to Salt Lake City it's average.

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is cost of living. it was the best decision I ever made. Worth doing your research before committing.

My experience has been mostly positive. the quality of life is solid. The only thing I'd watch out for is school system. Other than that, Would recommend to anyone considering it..

We moved here with our family and it exceeded my expectations. Schools in Downtown area are average. Kids love it here.
