Unpopular opinion about La Crosse

Any advice would be great. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.

The food scene here is solid. Tons of great Thai places. I love the pace of life here.

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

I'm a pharmacist who relocated here from Raleigh about 2 years ago. The main reasons were weather and work.

Pros I've experienced:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Active local events and festivals

Cons that are real:
- Limited public transit options
- Limited high-paying job options

Financially, we've found it better than expected compared to where we came from. If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. Groceries are manageable, gas is decent.

Socially, it was the best decision I ever made. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
