Should I move to Ringwood or stay in Tampa?

Random thought, We have two kids and Average temperature is around 52--F, so expect cold winters. You can expect to pay around $1,934 for rent here. Crime rate is something to consider -Ringwood sits at 41.1 per 100K. With a population of 11,600, Ringwood is a small town. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The city has invested a lot in new development. Thoughts? Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

Bought a house here in 2022 and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Property values have gone up significantly since then.
