Public transit is decent here. You'll probably need a car for most things. there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad.

We moved here with our family and it exceeded my expectations. Schools in West area are challenging. Kids love it here.

I've lived in The Heights for about 15 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it's improved dramatically in recent years. When I first moved here from Chicago, I was surprised by community vibe. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Good healthcare facilities
- Lots of new development happening
- The safety scene is surprisingly good
The downsides:
- Traffic during rush hour is rough
- Can feel isolated
Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for young professionals. Happy to answer more specific questions..

I've lived in Pine Hills for about 2 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it's not perfect but it works for me. When I first moved here from Dallas, I was surprised by healthcare. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- Decent public transit for the size
- The safety scene is solid
The downsides:
- Limited shopping options
- Bugs and humidity in summer
Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for retirees. Good luck with whatever you decide..

Bought a house here in 2020 and I'm still on the fence after all this time. Property values have gone up a bit since then.
