Hi all, Been living here since 2010. The median home value here is around $444,800, which is pretty steep. Average temperature is around 49--F, so expect cold winters. Poverty rate is 2.0%, which is pretty low. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The suburbs are where most families end up. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The weather takes some getting used to. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Property taxes are high but you get good services. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much.
