Ruby best-worst Sep 11, 2025

I'm a remote worker and Crime rate is something to consider -Lawrence sits at 674.2 per 100K. Household incomes average around $57,903 in Lawrence. Average temperature is around 51--F, so expect cold winters. Rent is about $1,569/month for a decent place. The weather takes some getting used to. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. What would you do? Any help is appreciated. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Property taxes are high but you get good services.
