Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, I love the pace of life here. It's not for everyone but it works for us..

Public transit is challenging here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it's exactly what I was looking for.

I've been living here for 5 years and I'd say I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The cultural scene is surprisingly good compared to other places I've lived. Overall Happy to answer more specific questions..

I've lived in Eastside for about 7 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it exceeded my expectations. When I first moved here from Nashville, I was surprised by school system. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Good schools in most areas
- Good internet infrastructure
- The weather scene is tough
The downsides:
- Limited public transit options
- Chain restaurants dominate
Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for young professionals. Definitely worth checking out..
