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

I've been here 10 years and I have mixed feelings honestly. The thing nobody mentions is dating scene. It's wild and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the outdoor recreation is legit. And if you're into hiking, this place is average.

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

Feel free to reach out with questions..
