Unpopular opinion about Johnston
Been meaning to ask this. You can expect to pay around $1,288 for rent here. Average temperature is around 50--F, so expect cold winters. Poverty rate is 5.3%, which is pretty low. With a population of 24,196, Johnston is a small town. Crime rate is something to consider -Johnston sits at 127.7 per 100K. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The city has invested a lot in new development. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much.
Pros:
- Good job market
- Friendly people
- Good airport connections
Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Cold winters
- Rising rent prices
- Limited dining options
- Boring for young people

There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The weather takes some getting used to. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.
