Thinking about relocating to Nashua from Salt Lake City

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

I'm a marketing manager who relocated here from Pittsburgh about 3 years ago. The main reasons were a fresh start and family.

Pros I've experienced:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Strong sense of community

Cons that are real:
- Urban sprawl is real
- Dating scene is rough

Financially, we've found it improving compared to where we came from. Older homes are where the value is. Groceries are established, gas is hit or miss.

Socially, I love the pace of life here. Happy to answer more specific questions..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 12 years ago from San Francisco and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Lots of new construction which should help. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in East. It's solid for what you get.

Jobs: The market is competitive right now, especially in consulting. If you're in tech you might struggle.

People: Generally tough. It took about 12 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: decent. Tons of options if you like Southern.

Would recommend to anyone considering it..
