I'm a teacher here and Average temperature is around 45--F, so bundle up in winter. Poverty rate is 4.4%, which is pretty low. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Does this match your experience? It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The city has invested a lot in new development. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The food scene here is surprisingly good. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem hit or miss.

I've been here 1 years and it's improved dramatically in recent years. The thing nobody mentions is nightlife. It's established and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the outdoor recreation is legit. And if you're into photography, this place is excellent.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Old Town side vs the Midtown side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Would recommend to anyone considering it..

Public transit is hit or miss here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it's exactly what I was looking for.
