Life in Lincoln as a young professional
Curious what people think. You can expect to pay around $1,045 for rent here. Poverty rate is 7.3%, which is pretty low. Median household income is $69,991, which feels about average for the area. The suburbs are where most families end up. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting.
Pros:
- Great weather
- Good schools
- Diverse community
- Strong sense of community
Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Limited nightlife
- Far from major airports
- Homelessness issues downtown
- Not enough green space
