The good and bad of living in Northdale

Alright, Average temperature is around 73--F, so it's warm year-round. Household incomes average around $91,656 in Northdale. Poverty rate is 3.4%, which is pretty low. Crime rate is something to consider -Northdale sits at 582.4 per 100K. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Property taxes are high but you get good services.

Pros:
- Good job market
- Growing food scene
- Plenty of shopping options
- Good airport connections

Cons:
- Traffic can be terrible
- Limited public transit
- Limited dining options
- Lack of diversity
- Limited cultural events
Am I overthinking this? I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The weather takes some getting used to. The suburbs are where most families end up. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

Hot take but it's improved dramatically in recent years. I know a lot of people disagree but after 5 years here, that's my honest assessment.
