Rent vs buy in Osceola -what makes sense?

Hey everyone, The median home value here is around $145,300, which is actually reasonable. Household incomes average around $62,363 in Osceola. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. What are your go-to spots?

Things that make Osceola unique

Been meaning to ask this. Military spouse here. The unemployment rate is 3.7%, which is pretty low. Poverty rate is 10.7%, which is around average. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The suburbs are where most families end up. Am I overthinking this?

Osceola housing prices -when will it stop?

I'm a 55-year-old accountant and Crime rate is something to consider -Osceola sits at 459.4 per 100K. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The city has invested a lot in new development. Any advice would be great. Any help is appreciated.
