Ian Torres best-worst Feb 21, 2026

Hi all, I'm a remote worker and The median home value here is around $274,600, which seems about average. It's a a small town city with about 12,193 people. Average temperature is around 58--F, so the weather is moderate. You can expect to pay around $1,182 for rent here. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The suburbs are where most families end up. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Property taxes are high but you get good services.
