Is it worth buying in Lebanon?
Curious what people think. Been living here since 2005. You can expect to pay around $1,274 for rent here. It's a a small town city with about 18,978 people. The unemployment rate is 4.1%, which is about average. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The weather takes some getting used to. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood.
Pros:
- Great weather
- Good job market
- Growing food scene
- Low taxes
Cons:
- Cold winters
- Sprawl everywhere
- Boring for young people
- Limited cultural events
- Not enough green space
