Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The food scene here is surprisingly good. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The city has invested a lot in new development. The suburbs are where most families end up. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The weather takes some getting used to. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.
