My experience has been mostly positive. I genuinely enjoy living here. The only thing I'd watch out for is school system. Other than that, Happy to answer more specific questions..

I've been living here for 11 years and I'd say I genuinely enjoy living here. The school system is average compared to other places I've lived. Overall Definitely worth checking out..

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

I've been here 12 years and it's not perfect but it works for me. The thing nobody mentions is safety. It's developing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the housing market is legit. And if you're into mountain biking, this place is excellent.

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

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