Things Lowes Island needs to improve

Average temperature is around 56--F, so the weather is moderate. The city has invested a lot in new development. Anyone in a similar situation?

Came here for weather and stayed because it exceeded my expectations. The nightlife is honestly decent and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

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

Moved here from Dallas about 3 years ago. I'm still on the fence after all this time. Still getting used to job market but Happy to answer more specific questions..

We moved here with our family and it was the best decision I ever made. Schools in Old Town area are tough. Kids love it here.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 1 years ago from Austin and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in North. It's better than expected for what you get.

Jobs: The market is pricey right now, especially in hospitality. If you're in tech you might struggle.

People: Generally solid. It took about 12 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: hit or miss. Tons of options if you like Thai.

Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
