I've lived in Meadowbrook for about 5 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I have mixed feelings honestly. When I first moved here from Houston, I was surprised by school system. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Strong job market in several industries
- The outdoor recreation scene is hit or miss

The downsides:
- Homeless population growing downtown
- Limited entertainment options

Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for singles. Good luck with whatever you decide..
