Housing market in Maple Glen right now
Been meaning to ask this. I work in food service and With a population of 6,851, Maple Glen is a small town. It's a a small town city with about 6,851 people. The median home value here is around $543,800, which is pretty steep. Rent is about $2,333/month for a decent place. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The city has invested a lot in new development.
Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Great weather
- Good job market
- Growing food scene
- Good internet infrastructure
Cons:
- Sprawl everywhere
- Limited dining options
- Chain restaurants dominate
- Homelessness issues downtown
- Not enough green space
Is this normal for Maple Glen? Appreciate any input. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.
