Random thought, Average temperature is around 61--F, so the weather is moderate. Poverty rate is 4.1%, which is pretty low. Median household income is $158,461, which feels pretty solid for the area. The weather takes some getting used to. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Has anyone dealt with this? There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood.

Came here for a fresh start and stayed because I genuinely enjoy living here. The traffic is honestly tough and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem tough.
I've been here 6 years and the quality of life is solid. The thing nobody mentions is housing market. It's manageable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the community vibe is legit. And if you're into biking, this place is improving.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Meadowbrook side vs the Springfield side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Hope this helps!.

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. it's been a really good experience overall. Internet is excellent in most areas.
