Remote worker thinking about Maltby

Hey folks, I grew up here but left for a while. Median household income is $179,276, which feels pretty solid for the area. Household incomes average around $179,276 in Maltby. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Thoughts? Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is safety. it's improved dramatically in recent years. Worth doing your research before committing.

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

I've been here 13 years and there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The thing nobody mentions is cost of living. It's stable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the school system is legit. And if you're into kayaking, this place is solid.

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

Happy to answer more specific questions..

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want job market, then yeah this place is great. But if cultural scene matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.
