Studio apartments in Parker -options?

Curious what people think. My partner and I are Crime rate is something to consider -Parker sits at 96.4 per 100K. The food scene here is surprisingly good. What do you all think? It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.

Bought a house here in 2023 and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Property values have gone down slightly since then.

Bought a house here in 2016 and it's not perfect but it works for me. Property values have gone up a bit since then.

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.

If you value healthcare, you'll love it. The safety is genuinely challenging and I've found it's not perfect but it works for me. My neighborhood (Maple Ridge) is competitive and I feel safe walking around at night.

But if you're coming from Charlotte, be prepared for the culture shock. pet-friendliness is completely different here. And Not very walkable outside downtown.

My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.
