I've lived in Downtown for about 11 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it's improved dramatically in recent years. When I first moved here from Minneapolis, I was surprised by safety. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Strong job market in several industries
- Active local events and festivals
- The pet-friendliness scene is hit or miss
The downsides:
- Urban sprawl is real
- Property taxes are high
Overall I'd rate it 5/10 for young professionals. Hope this helps!.

Used to live on the Fairview side, now on the Riverside side. Completely different vibe. I love the pace of life here.

Moved here from Charlotte about 2 years ago. I have mixed feelings honestly. Still getting used to dating scene but Definitely worth checking out..

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want cultural scene, then yeah this place is great. But if walkability matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.
