Been meaning to ask this. I'm a remote worker and It's a a small town city with about 18,909 people. Homes are going for about $279,100 on average. You can expect to pay around $1,096 for rent here. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. What would you do? The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The city has invested a lot in new development. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much.

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are tough, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.

Weather-wise, the summers are hit or miss and winters are wild. You get used to it after the first year.

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. the quality of life is solid. Internet is challenging in most areas.

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Would recommend to anyone considering it..

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is traffic. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Worth doing your research before committing.

Bought a house here in 2019 and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Property values have gone up significantly since then.
