Public transit is challenging here. You'll probably need a car for most things. the quality of life is solid.

I've lived in Greenfield for about 12 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

it's improved dramatically in recent years. When I first moved here from Denver, I was surprised by public transit. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Growing food and restaurant scene
- Lots of new development happening
- The cost of living scene is hit or miss

The downsides:
- Limited high-paying job options
- Limited entertainment options

Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for young professionals. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
