Raising a family in McMinnville -thoughts?
Not sure if this has been asked before, but We have two kids and Rent is about $1,290/month for a decent place. The unemployment rate is 3.1%, which is pretty low. Household incomes average around $70,060 in McMinnville. You can expect to pay around $1,290 for rent here. Property taxes are high but you get good services. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.
Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Nice parks and trails
- Low taxes
- Strong sense of community
- Good airport connections
Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Sprawl everywhere
- Mosquitoes and humidity
- Far from major airports
