Why I chose Oneida over bigger cities
Curious what people think. I'm a college student here and Median household income is $60,380, which feels about average for the area. Homes are going for about $146,300 on average. It's a a small town city with about 10,240 people. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.
Pros:
- Low crime in most areas
- Good schools
- Diverse community
- Lots of new development
- Active local events
Cons:
- Limited nightlife
- Sprawl everywhere
- Not very walkable
- Mosquitoes and humidity
