OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 14 years ago from San Francisco and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in East. It's average for what you get.

Jobs: The market is pricey right now, especially in hospitality. If you're in finance you might struggle.

People: Generally hit or miss. It took about 10 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: surprisingly good. Tons of options if you like Indian.

Good luck with whatever you decide..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 6 years ago from Charlotte and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Lots of new construction which should help. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in North. It's average for what you get.

Jobs: The market is manageable right now, especially in finance. If you're in real estate you might struggle.

People: Generally decent. It took about 11 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: solid. Tons of options if you like Indian.

Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want dating scene, then yeah this place is great. But if housing market matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.
