Is Rock Springs getting better or worse?
OK so I grew up here but left for a while. The unemployment rate is 3.4%, which is pretty low. Crime rate is something to consider -Rock Springs sits at 190.5 per 100K. Rent is about $943/month for a decent place. It's a a small town city with about 23,229 people. Median household income is $73,307, which feels about average for the area. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting.
Pros:
- Nice parks and trails
- Good internet infrastructure
- Plenty of shopping options
Cons:
- Cold winters
- Limited dining options
- High property taxes
- Boring for young people
- Poor road conditions
