Internet providers in Parkville?

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

If you value school system, you'll love it. The public transit is genuinely surprisingly good and I've found the quality of life is solid. My neighborhood (East) is affordable and I feel safe walking around at night.

But if you're coming from Portland, be prepared for the culture shock. healthcare is completely different here. And Limited shopping options.

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.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a accountant who relocated here from Raleigh about 7 years ago. The main reasons were a job opportunity and a job opportunity.

Pros I've experienced:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Decent public transit for the size
- Good airport with direct flights

Cons that are real:
- Can feel isolated
- Bugs and humidity in summer

Financially, we've found it improving compared to where we came from. The market is competitive but not impossible. Groceries are competitive, gas is tough.

Socially, I love the pace of life here. No regrets on my end..

I'm a electrician and I've found there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The community is excellent and there's always something going on.
