Longtime lurker here, You can expect to pay around $1,126 for rent here. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. What do you all think? Any help is appreciated. Property taxes are high but you get good services. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is nightlife. I love the pace of life here. Worth doing your research before committing.

I've been living here for 9 years and I'd say I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The pet-friendliness is excellent compared to other places I've lived. Overall Definitely worth checking out..

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a writer who relocated here from Miami about 11 years ago. The main reasons were a fresh start and family.
Pros I've experienced:
- Friendly community, easy to meet people
- Growing food and restaurant scene
- Affordable housing options
Cons that are real:
- Summers can be brutally hot
- Urban sprawl is real
Financially, we've found it improving compared to where we came from. If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. Groceries are competitive, gas is pretty good.
Socially, I love the pace of life here. Hope this helps!.
