I've lived in The Heights for about 11 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I have mixed feelings honestly. When I first moved here from Boston, I was surprised by housing market. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:

- Nice parks and green spaces

- Active local events and festivals

- The community vibe scene is improving

The downsides:

- Rising rent and home prices

- Limited high-paying job options

Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for couples. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
