Life in Leisure Village as a young professional
Not sure if this has been asked before, but With a population of 6,307, Leisure Village is a small town. Average temperature is around 54--F, so expect cold winters. Household incomes average around $42,705 in Leisure Village. Homes are going for about $127,000 on average. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Property taxes are high but you get good services.
Pros:
- Good job market
- Growing food scene
- Lots of new development
- Good airport connections
Cons:
- Traffic can be terrible
- Limited public transit
- Cold winters
- Limited dining options
- Poor road conditions
Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The suburbs are where most families end up. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.
