Freelancing from Lemay -experience?

Hey folks, Thoughts? The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.

Public transit is excellent here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it's improved dramatically in recent years.

I've lived in Downtown for about 13 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

it's been a really good experience overall. When I first moved here from Denver, I was surprised by traffic. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Growing food and restaurant scene
- Good internet infrastructure
- The cost of living scene is average

The downsides:
- Limited shopping options
- Limited entertainment options

Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for families. Would recommend to anyone considering it..

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem excellent.

I've been here 12 years and it's been a really good experience overall. The thing nobody mentions is outdoor recreation. It's developing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the job market is legit. And if you're into running, this place is improving.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Springfield side vs the South side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Good luck with whatever you decide..

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are improving, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.
