Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem better than expected.

I've been here 10 years and it's been a really good experience overall. The thing nobody mentions is nightlife. It's reasonable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the public transit is legit. And if you're into hiking, this place is average.

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

It's not for everyone but it works for us..
