I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is dating scene. I genuinely enjoy living here. Worth doing your research before committing.

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. it's not perfect but it works for me. Internet is solid in most areas.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a accountant who relocated here from Seattle about 2 years ago. The main reasons were quality of life and a job opportunity.

Pros I've experienced:
- Lots of new development happening
- Good internet infrastructure
- Active local events and festivals

Cons that are real:
- Urban sprawl is real
- Far from beaches/mountains

Financially, we've found it average compared to where we came from. Lots of new construction which should help. Groceries are competitive, gas is solid.

Socially, it's been a really good experience overall. No regrets on my end..

Weather-wise, the summers are average and winters are manageable. You get used to it after the first year.

The food scene here is better than expected. Tons of great Southern places. I love the pace of life here.
