Housing in North Richland Hills compared to St. Louis

I'm retired and Crime rate is something to consider -North Richland Hills sits at 199.1 per 100K. Average temperature is around 65--F, so the weather is moderate. Poverty rate is 4.5%, which is pretty low. With a population of 70,338, North Richland Hills is a smaller city. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.

Pros:
- Low taxes
- Good internet infrastructure
- Active local events

Cons:
- Hot summers
- Limited nightlife
- High property taxes
- Poor road conditions
- Homelessness issues downtown
