Moving to Paramount-Long Meadow with kids -good idea?

OK so I'm a nurse at the local hospital and You can expect to pay around $1,421 for rent here. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Has anyone dealt with this? There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. The city has invested a lot in new development. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.

Bought a house here in 2016 and I genuinely enjoy living here. Property values have gone up a bit since then.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 3 years ago from Seattle and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in Eastside. It's challenging for what you get.

Jobs: The market is established right now, especially in healthcare. If you're in retail you might struggle.

People: Generally challenging. It took about 14 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: average. Tons of options if you like farm-to-table.

Definitely worth checking out..
