Came here for a fresh start and stayed because the quality of life is solid. The community vibe is honestly hit or miss and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. I love the pace of life here. Internet is better than expected in most areas.

My experience has been mostly positive. the quality of life is solid. The only thing I'd watch out for is housing market. Other than that, Feel free to reach out with questions..

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem pretty good.
I've been here 2 years and it's improved dramatically in recent years. The thing nobody mentions is nightlife. It's wild and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the traffic is legit. And if you're into photography, this place is challenging.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Cedar Grove side vs the Oak Park side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
