The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Appreciate any input.

Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.
