Rent in Montgomery getting crazy
Alright, I'm a college student here and Crime rate is something to consider — Montgomery sits at 522.5 per 100K. It's a a mid-size city city with about 198K people. Household incomes average around $55,687 in Montgomery. Poverty rate is 17.7%, which is higher than I expected. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. It's changing fast — some good, some not so much. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.
Pros:
- Good job market
- Good schools
- Lots of new development
- Good healthcare facilities
- Active local events
Cons:
- Limited dining options
- Lack of diversity
- Poor road conditions
- Limited cultural events
- Chain restaurants dominate
