Random thought, Military spouse here. The unemployment rate is 6.1%, which is concerning. Average temperature is around 81--F, so it's warm year-round. Median household income is $21,756, which feels on the lower side for the area. Rent is about $640/month for a decent place. The suburbs are where most families end up. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. What do you all think? Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The suburbs are where most families end up. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The city has invested a lot in new development. The weather takes some getting used to. The suburbs are where most families end up. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.
