Military spouse here. The median home value here is around $148,600, which is actually reasonable. The food scene here is surprisingly good. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. What are your go-to spots?

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want safety, then yeah this place is great. But if job market matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 1 years ago from San Francisco and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Midtown. It's surprisingly good for what you get.
Jobs: The market is reasonable right now, especially in retail. If you're in consulting you might struggle.
People: Generally underrated. It took about 7 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: better than expected. Tons of options if you like Southern.
Happy to answer more specific questions..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 15 years ago from Austin and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: The market is competitive but not impossible. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Uptown. It's improving for what you get.
Jobs: The market is growing right now, especially in consulting. If you're in education you might struggle.
People: Generally decent. It took about 9 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: solid. Tons of options if you like Italian.
Would recommend to anyone considering it..
