So, I'm a remote worker and Rent is about $1,670/month for a decent place. You can expect to pay around $1,670 for rent here. Crime rate is something to consider -Matthews sits at 173.8 per 100K. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Anyone in a similar situation? Night life is decent if you know the right spots. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.
