What Jefferson does better than anywhere else

Longtime lurker here, Been living here since 2014. Crime rate is something to consider -Jefferson sits at 153.0 per 100K. Median household income is $96,761, which feels pretty solid for the area. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The city has invested a lot in new development.
