First post here. I relocated for work and Median household income is $98,046, which feels pretty solid for the area. The median home value here is around $387,400, which seems about average. Crime rate is something to consider -Indian Harbour Beach sits at 46.4 per 100K. Average temperature is around 73--F, so it's warm year-round. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Thanks in advance!

We moved here with our family and it's exactly what I was looking for. Schools in Sunset area are average. Kids love it here.

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.
If you value public transit, you'll love it. The outdoor recreation is genuinely tough and I've found I have mixed feelings honestly. My neighborhood (Springfield) is manageable and I feel safe walking around at night.
But if you're coming from Minneapolis, be prepared for the culture shock. pet-friendliness is completely different here. And Not very walkable outside downtown.
My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.
