Day-to-day life in Nipomo, CA

Hey everyone, I'm retired and Poverty rate is 4.2%, which is pretty low. Homes are going for about $674,100 on average. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Am I wrong here?

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a physical therapist who relocated here from Boston about 1 years ago. The main reasons were weather and quality of life.

Pros I've experienced:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Active local events and festivals
- Diverse dining options

Cons that are real:
- Rising rent and home prices
- Not a lot of cultural diversity

Financially, we've found it improving compared to where we came from. Lots of new construction which should help. Groceries are established, gas is hit or miss.

Socially, there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Would recommend to anyone considering it..
