Housing in Newark compared to Houston
OK so I'm single, late 20s, and Average temperature is around 60--F, so the weather is moderate. Median household income is $164,909, which feels pretty solid for the area. Poverty rate is 2.1%, which is pretty low. The median home value here is around $1,094,200, which is pretty steep. The city has invested a lot in new development. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The food scene here is surprisingly good.
Pros:
- Great weather
- Good job market
- Nice parks and trails
Cons:
- Traffic can be terrible
- Limited public transit
- Cold winters
- Not very walkable
- Far from major airports
