OK so It's a a small town city with about 14,547 people. Median household income is $42,702, which feels on the lower side for the area. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Is this normal for Reidsville? I'd say it's better for families than young singles.

Bought a house here in 2015 and it's been a really good experience overall. Property values have gone up a bit since then.

As someone who grew up here, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. A lot has changed in the past few years though. healthcare used to be much stable but now it's hit or miss.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem challenging.
I've been here 13 years and it's improved dramatically in recent years. The thing nobody mentions is school system. It's wild and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the weather is legit. And if you're into biking, this place is improving.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Old Town side vs the Riverside side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Good luck with whatever you decide..

I've been living here for 7 years and I'd say there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The job market is challenging compared to other places I've lived. Overall Feel free to reach out with questions..

Bought a house here in 2020 and I'm still on the fence after all this time. Property values have gone about the same since then.

We moved here with our family and I genuinely enjoy living here. Schools in West area are better than expected. Kids love it here.
