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

I'm a accountant who relocated here from Seattle about 13 years ago. The main reasons were cost of living and retirement.

Pros I've experienced:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Good airport with direct flights

Cons that are real:
- Limited high-paying job options
- Road conditions need improvement

Financially, we've found it hit or miss compared to where we came from. Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. Groceries are growing, gas is excellent.

Socially, I genuinely enjoy living here. Feel free to reach out with questions..
