Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a physical therapist who relocated here from Raleigh about 8 years ago. The main reasons were cost of living and family.

Pros I've experienced:
- Close to major attractions
- Affordable housing options
- Diverse dining options

Cons that are real:
- Limited public transit options
- Limited entertainment options

Financially, we've found it challenging compared to where we came from. If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. Groceries are pricey, gas is challenging.

Socially, there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Good luck with whatever you decide..
