Hey, With a population of 54,180, Peabody is a smaller city. The suburbs are where most families end up. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Let me know your thoughts. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.

Public transit is excellent here. You'll probably need a car for most things. there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad.

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is healthcare. the quality of life is solid. Worth doing your research before committing.

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want job market, then yeah this place is great. But if nightlife matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.
