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

I've lived in Cedar Grove for about 7 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I have mixed feelings honestly. When I first moved here from New York, I was surprised by nightlife. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Good healthcare facilities
- Lots of new development happening
- The outdoor recreation scene is average

The downsides:
- Winters are long and cold
- Property taxes are high

Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for young professionals. Good luck with whatever you decide..
