Quick question about McConnellstown

Rent is about $1,270/month for a decent place. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Anyone in a similar situation? Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 9 years ago from LA and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: The market is competitive but not impossible. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in East. It's hit or miss for what you get.

Jobs: The market is stable right now, especially in legal. If you're in tech you might struggle.

People: Generally hit or miss. It took about 14 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: tough. Tons of options if you like Mexican.

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.
