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

I'm a HR manager who relocated here from Tampa about 8 years ago. The main reasons were a fresh start and quality of life.

Pros I've experienced:
- Friendly community, easy to meet people
- Four distinct seasons
- Lots of family-friendly activities

Cons that are real:
- Urban sprawl is real
- Homeless population growing downtown

Financially, we've found it surprisingly good compared to where we came from. Older homes are where the value is. Groceries are affordable, gas is surprisingly good.

Socially, it's exactly what I was looking for. Definitely worth checking out..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 4 years ago from Charlotte and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Maple Ridge. It's challenging for what you get.

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

People: Generally underrated. It took about 8 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: average. Tons of options if you like Vietnamese.

No regrets on my end..

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. I have mixed feelings honestly. Internet is solid in most areas.
