Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a software engineer who relocated here from Minneapolis about 14 years ago. The main reasons were weather and a job opportunity.

Pros I've experienced:
- Strong job market in several industries
- Good airport with direct flights
- Lots of family-friendly activities

Cons that are real:
- Limited high-paying job options
- Can feel isolated

Financially, we've found it challenging compared to where we came from. If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. Groceries are reasonable, gas is tough.

Socially, it's been a really good experience overall. Hope this helps!.
