OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 8 years ago from New York and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 4-bed in Uptown. It's surprisingly good for what you get.
Jobs: The market is reasonable right now, especially in consulting. If you're in consulting you might struggle.
People: Generally surprisingly good. It took about 8 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: tough. Tons of options if you like Mediterranean.
It's not for everyone but it works for us..

Came here for cost of living and stayed because I love the pace of life here. The dating scene is honestly decent and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

My experience has been mostly positive. it was the best decision I ever made. The only thing I'd watch out for is job market. Other than that, Give it a chance - it might surprise you..

Weather-wise, the summers are improving and winters are established. You get used to it after the first year.

I've been living here for 15 years and I'd say it's been a really good experience overall. The housing market is decent compared to other places I've lived. Overall Good luck with whatever you decide..

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

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. I love the pace of life here. Internet is improving in most areas.
