Freelancing from Menomonee Falls -experience?

Hey folks, Rent is about $1,257/month for a decent place. Homes are going for about $341,600 on average. Average temperature is around 46--F, so expect cold winters. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The city has invested a lot in new development. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Would love some local perspective.   It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The city has invested a lot in new development. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 5 years ago from Minneapolis and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in East. It's excellent for what you get.

Jobs: The market is competitive right now, especially in education. If you're in construction you might struggle.

People: Generally underrated. It took about 8 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: challenging. Tons of options if you like craft beer.

No regrets on my end..

Hot take but I have mixed feelings honestly. I know a lot of people disagree but after 14 years here, that's my honest assessment.
