Is it worth buying in Normandy?

Not sure if this has been asked before, but Rent is about $891/month for a decent place. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Should I be concerned? There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The city has invested a lot in new development. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, it's exactly what I was looking for. Hope this helps!.

I've been living here for 6 years and I'd say I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The cultural scene is excellent compared to other places I've lived. Overall No regrets on my end..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 5 years ago from Houston and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: The market is competitive but not impossible. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in Highland. It's improving for what you get.

Jobs: The market is wild right now, especially in government. If you're in education you might struggle.

People: Generally excellent. It took about 10 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: decent. Tons of options if you like Vietnamese.

No regrets on my end..
