Hi all, I'm a teacher here and Median household income is $51,798, which feels on the lower side for the area. The median home value here is around $71,200, which is actually reasonable. Average temperature is around 51--F, so expect cold winters. The unemployment rate is 2.0%, which is pretty low. Property taxes are high but you get good services. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The food scene here is surprisingly good. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.
