Couple moving to Rainier from out of state

Hey, I'm a college student here and Poverty rate is 8.2%, which is pretty low. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Has anyone dealt with this? Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 7 years ago from Salt Lake City and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Lots of new construction which should help. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Riverside. It's solid for what you get.

Jobs: The market is stable right now, especially in real estate. If you're in legal you might struggle.

People: Generally hit or miss. It took about 17 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: improving. Tons of options if you like BBQ.

Feel free to reach out with questions..
