Alright, We have two kids and The median home value here is around $425,200, which is pretty steep. Homes are going for about $425,200 on average. Crime rate is something to consider -Lakeville sits at 67.0 per 100K. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. What do you all think? TIA! It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The suburbs are where most families end up. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The weather takes some getting used to. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The weather takes some getting used to. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.

If you value school system, you'll love it. The traffic is genuinely excellent and I've found there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. My neighborhood (Springfield) is reasonable and I feel safe walking around at night.

But if you're coming from Raleigh, be prepared for the culture shock. safety is completely different here. And Summers can be brutally hot.

My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.
