Hi all, Average temperature is around 75--F, so it's warm year-round. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Am I wrong here? There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

I've been living here for 6 years and I'd say it was the best decision I ever made. The public transit is improving compared to other places I've lived. Overall It's not for everyone but it works for us..

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem decent.
I've been here 4 years and it's been a really good experience overall. The thing nobody mentions is dating scene. It's pricey and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the job market is legit. And if you're into mountain biking, this place is improving.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Old Town side vs the Lakewood side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
No regrets on my end..

My experience has been mostly positive. I love the pace of life here. The only thing I'd watch out for is food scene. Other than that, Feel free to reach out with questions..

Hot take but there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. I know a lot of people disagree but after 11 years here, that's my honest assessment.
