OK so Rent is about $1,863/month for a decent place. Household incomes average around $69,150 in Kendale Lakes. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Does this match your experience? Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are excellent, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.

I've lived in Midtown for about 14 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it was the best decision I ever made. When I first moved here from Boston, I was surprised by traffic. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Good schools in most areas
- Good internet infrastructure
- The outdoor recreation scene is decent
The downsides:
- Limited high-paying job options
- Far from beaches/mountains
Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for retirees. Happy to answer more specific questions..

Bought a house here in 2020 and it's not perfect but it works for me. Property values have gone up significantly since then.
