The city has invested a lot in new development. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Would love some local perspective. The food scene here is surprisingly good. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. The weather takes some getting used to. The food scene here is surprisingly good.

It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

I've lived in Highland for about 15 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 Phoenix, I was surprised by healthcare. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Good schools in most areas
- Diverse dining options
- The cultural scene scene is tough

The downsides:
- Can feel isolated
- Dating scene is rough

Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for couples. Good luck with whatever you decide..
