Should I move to Oak Ridge or stay in Miami?
Not sure if this has been asked before, but I've been here for 20 years and It's changing fast -

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a lawyer who relocated here from Chicago about 11 years ago. The main reasons were school and weather.
Pros I've experienced:
- Lots of new development happening
- Good airport with direct flights
- Diverse dining options
Cons that are real:
- Traffic during rush hour is rough
- Limited entertainment options
Financially, we've found it pretty good compared to where we came from. If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. Groceries are pricey, gas is better than expected.
Socially, it exceeded my expectations. Definitely worth checking out..
