Anyone else feel this way? I'm a teacher here and Crime rate is something to consider -Poughkeepsie sits at 772.5 per 100K. The suburbs are where most families end up. Has anyone dealt with this?

I've lived in Greenfield for about 9 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. When I first moved here from Dallas, I was surprised by job market. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Good internet infrastructure
- The job market scene is decent
The downsides:
- Limited public transit options
- Property taxes are high
Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for remote workers. Would recommend to anyone considering it..

Public transit is average here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it was the best decision I ever made.
