Considering Mountain Home vs Phoenix -help me decide

Random thought, I've been here for 3 years and The unemployment rate is 3.5%, which is pretty low. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Cheers. The city has invested a lot in new development. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

I've lived in Springfield for about 9 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

it's been a really good experience overall. When I first moved here from Dallas, I was surprised by cultural scene. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:

- Friendly community, easy to meet people

- Growing food and restaurant scene

- The dating scene scene is solid

The downsides:

- Nightlife is limited

- Not a lot of cultural diversity

Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for remote workers. Would recommend to anyone considering it..
