Rancho Mirage is underrated, change my mind

Hey everyone, The median home value here is around $747,800, which is pretty steep. Median household income is $109,943, which feels pretty solid for the area. With a population of 17,375, Rancho Mirage is a small town. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The suburbs are where most families end up.

Pros:
- Nice parks and trails
- Growing food scene
- Good healthcare facilities
- Walkable downtown

Cons:
- Limited dining options
- Mosquitoes and humidity
- Far from major airports
