Planning a move to Mountain House -neighborhoods?

Hey folks, We're a young couple and Median household income is $171,675, which feels pretty solid for the area. The median home value here is around $859,700, which is pretty steep. Homes are going for about $859,700 on average. Household incomes average around $171,675 in Mountain House. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a social worker who relocated here from San Diego about 15 years ago. The main reasons were a job opportunity and quality of life.

Pros I've experienced:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Good airport with direct flights

Cons that are real:
- Traffic during rush hour is rough
- Dating scene is rough

Financially, we've found it underrated compared to where we came from. If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. Groceries are pricey, gas is improving.

Socially, it's been a really good experience overall. Happy to answer more specific questions..
