Thinking about relocating to Morton from Los Angeles

You can expect to pay around $932 for rent here. Rent is about $932/month for a decent place. The food scene here is surprisingly good. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Has anyone dealt with this? There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. I have mixed feelings honestly. Internet is solid in most areas.

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.

If you value school system, you'll love it. The cost of living is genuinely challenging and I've found it was the best decision I ever made. My neighborhood (Downtown) is established and I feel safe walking around at night.

But if you're coming from Austin, be prepared for the culture shock. job market is completely different here. And Urban sprawl is real.

My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.
