Alright, Homes are going for about $203,100 on average. Average temperature is around 53--F, so expect cold winters. The weather takes some getting used to. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Does this match your experience? Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 9 years ago from Tampa and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in Maple Ridge. It's excellent for what you get.
Jobs: The market is stable right now, especially in consulting. If you're in legal you might struggle.
People: Generally average. It took about 3 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: underrated. Tons of options if you like Mexican.
Good luck with whatever you decide..

I've been living here for 11 years and I'd say it's exactly what I was looking for. The community vibe is tough compared to other places I've lived. Overall Definitely worth checking out..
