Best coffee shops in Martin?
Longtime lurker here, With a population of 10,864, Martin is a small town. The weather takes some getting used to. Am I wrong here?

Hot take but I love the pace of life here. I know a lot of people disagree but after 15 years here, that's my honest assessment.

We moved here with our family and it's exactly what I was looking for. Schools in Midtown area are average. Kids love it here.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a real estate agent who relocated here from Baltimore about 7 years ago. The main reasons were weather and a fresh start.
Pros I've experienced:
- Strong job market in several industries
- Good internet infrastructure
- Four distinct seasons
Cons that are real:
- Rising rent and home prices
- Not very walkable outside downtown
Financially, we've found it underrated compared to where we came from. Lots of new construction which should help. Groceries are wild, gas is solid.
Socially, it's been a really good experience overall. No regrets on my end..
