Hi all, Rent is about $743/month for a decent place. You can expect to pay around $743 for rent here. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Has anyone dealt with this? The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The city has invested a lot in new development. The city has invested a lot in new development. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a pharmacist who relocated here from Pittsburgh about 4 years ago. The main reasons were school and weather.
Pros I've experienced:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Good schools in most areas
- Good airport with direct flights
Cons that are real:
- Property taxes are high
- Far from beaches/mountains
Financially, we've found it pretty good compared to where we came from. If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. Groceries are pricey, gas is improving.
Socially, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Feel free to reach out with questions..
