What I wish I knew before living in Kissimmee

I'm a 26-year-old HR manager and The median home value here is around $273,900, which seems about average. It's a a smaller city city with about 79,504 people. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Am I wrong here? Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The weather takes some getting used to.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 3 years ago from Atlanta and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Cedar Grove. It's average for what you get.

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

People: Generally hit or miss. It took about 5 months to build a solid friend group.

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

It's not for everyone but it works for us..
