Been meaning to ask this. We have two kids and It's a a small town city with about 5,990 people. Poverty rate is 4.7%, which is pretty low. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The suburbs are where most families end up. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.

I've lived in Fairview for about 1 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. When I first moved here from Denver, I was surprised by dating scene. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Affordable housing options
- The traffic scene is improving
The downsides:
- Limited high-paying job options
- Road conditions need improvement
Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for remote workers. Feel free to reach out with questions..

I've lived in Cedar Grove for about 9 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it's been a really good experience overall. When I first moved here from Denver, I was surprised by food scene. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Active local events and festivals
- Affordable housing options
- The dating scene scene is better than expected
The downsides:
- Bugs and humidity in summer
- Far from beaches/mountains
Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for retirees. Good luck with whatever you decide..

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 4-bedroom. I'm still on the fence after all this time. Compared to Phoenix it's challenging.
