What to expect moving to Knox?

Alright, Poverty rate is 3.7%, which is pretty low. Average temperature is around 49--F, so expect cold winters. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Has anyone dealt with this? It's changing fast -some good, some not so much.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a nurse who relocated here from Phoenix about 15 years ago. The main reasons were cost of living and a job opportunity.

Pros I've experienced:
- Growing food and restaurant scene
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Four distinct seasons

Cons that are real:
- Limited public transit options
- Property taxes are high

Financially, we've found it average compared to where we came from. It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. Groceries are developing, gas is decent.

Socially, it's not perfect but it works for me. Hope this helps!.
