I've been here for 1 years and Rent is about $754/month for a decent place. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Anyone in a similar situation? Thanks for reading. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The suburbs are where most families end up. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem excellent.
I've been here 8 years and it's been a really good experience overall. The thing nobody mentions is job market. It's growing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the community vibe is legit. And if you're into fishing, this place is average.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Springfield side vs the Eastside side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
