Random thought, Poverty rate is 4.1%, which is pretty low. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Does this match your experience? TIA! The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.
If you value weather, you'll love it. The dating scene is genuinely improving and I've found I have mixed feelings honestly. My neighborhood (East) is growing and I feel safe walking around at night.
But if you're coming from Austin, be prepared for the culture shock. cost of living is completely different here. And Nightlife is limited.
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.
