I've lived in Springfield for about 9 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. When I first moved here from Raleigh, I was surprised by nightlife. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Decent public transit for the size
- Four distinct seasons
- The job market scene is tough

The downsides:
- Not very walkable outside downtown
- Can feel isolated

Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for young professionals. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
