Is Mitchellville getting better or worse?
Longtime lurker here, I work in healthcare and Crime rate is something to consider -Mitchellville sits at 176.3 per 100K. Average temperature is around 55--F, so expect cold winters. It's a a small town city with about 11,325 people. Poverty rate is 0.7%, which is pretty low. You can expect to pay around $2,372 for rent here. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.
Pros:
- Good job market
- Low crime in most areas
- Diverse community
- Lots of new development
- Good airport connections
Cons:
- Traffic can be terrible
- Limited dining options
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Chain restaurants dominate
