Came here for work and stayed because I'm still on the fence after all this time. The weather is honestly solid and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Weather-wise, the summers are average and winters are competitive. You get used to it after the first year.

As someone who grew up here, there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. A lot has changed in the past few years though. walkability used to be much manageable but now it's hit or miss.

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want weather, then yeah this place is great. But if healthcare matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are underrated, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.
