Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, I genuinely enjoy living here. Definitely worth checking out..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 4 years ago from San Diego and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. We're paying /mo for a 4-bed in Pine Hills. It's surprisingly good for what you get.

Jobs: The market is developing right now, especially in retail. If you're in consulting you might struggle.

People: Generally excellent. It took about 17 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: challenging. Tons of options if you like Vietnamese.

It's not for everyone but it works for us..

Weather-wise, the summers are decent and winters are competitive. You get used to it after the first year.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem average.

I've been here 5 years and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The thing nobody mentions is community vibe. It's growing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the job market is legit. And if you're into camping, this place is pretty good.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Riverside side vs the Lakewood side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
