Not sure if this has been asked before, but I'm single, late 40s, and Rent is about $1,143/month for a decent place. It's a a small town city with about 1,209 people. The city has invested a lot in new development. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Cheers.

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. I'm still on the fence after all this time. Internet is pretty good in most areas.

I've lived in Cedar Grove for about 6 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. When I first moved here from LA, I was surprised by weather. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Good schools in most areas
- The weather scene is pretty good
The downsides:
- Limited high-paying job options
- Property taxes are high
Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for young professionals. Happy to answer more specific questions..

I've lived in Riverside for about 9 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it's not perfect but it works for me. When I first moved here from Boston, I was surprised by housing market. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Decent public transit for the size
- Lots of new development happening
- The housing market scene is challenging
