Not sure if this has been asked before, but I relocated for work and Average temperature is around 59--F, so the weather is moderate. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Thoughts? The city has invested a lot in new development.

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. I'm still on the fence after all this time. Internet is pretty good in most areas.

Bought a house here in 2024 and the quality of life is solid. Property values have gone about the same since then.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a software engineer who relocated here from Dallas about 15 years ago. The main reasons were my partner's job and my partner's job.
Pros I've experienced:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Active local events and festivals
- Four distinct seasons
Cons that are real:
- Chain restaurants dominate
- Bugs and humidity in summer
Financially, we've found it decent compared to where we came from. It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. Groceries are growing, gas is improving.
Socially, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. No regrets on my end..

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is outdoor recreation. it was the best decision I ever made. Worth doing your research before committing.

Public transit is challenging here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it exceeded my expectations.
