Living in Los Banos -the reality

So, Been living here since 2005. Average temperature is around 63--F, so the weather is moderate. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Any advice would be great.

I've lived in Oak Park for about 10 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I have mixed feelings honestly. When I first moved here from Miami, I was surprised by cost of living. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- Decent public transit for the size
- The pet-friendliness scene is decent

The downsides:
- Limited high-paying job options
- Not a lot of cultural diversity

Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for singles. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
