Average temperature is around 63--F, so the weather is moderate. The unemployment rate is 6.1%, which is concerning. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Property taxes are high but you get good services.
Pros:
- Friendly people
- Low crime in most areas
- Walkable downtown
Cons:
- Limited dining options
- High property taxes
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Mosquitoes and humidity
