Anyone else feel this way? I'm a nurse at the local hospital and You can expect to pay around $1,031 for rent here. The unemployment rate is 3.3%, which is pretty low. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a lawyer who relocated here from San Diego about 4 years ago. The main reasons were retirement and weather.
Pros I've experienced:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Good healthcare facilities
- Close to major attractions
Cons that are real:
- Not a lot of cultural diversity
- Dating scene is rough
Financially, we've found it tough compared to where we came from. The market is competitive but not impossible. Groceries are manageable, gas is challenging.
Socially, it's been a really good experience overall. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. I genuinely enjoy living here. Internet is decent in most areas.
