Hey folks, It's a a small town city with about 16,410 people. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Let me know your thoughts.

The food scene here is underrated. Tons of great BBQ places. I have mixed feelings honestly.

Public transit is tough here. You'll probably need a car for most things. there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad.

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want walkability, then yeah this place is great. But if cultural scene matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.

I've lived in Midtown for about 7 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
the quality of life is solid. When I first moved here from Chicago, I was surprised by pet-friendliness. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Good schools in most areas
- Four distinct seasons
- The school system scene is average
The downsides:
- Urban sprawl is real
- Not a lot of cultural diversity
Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for retirees. Good luck with whatever you decide..

I've been living here for 8 years and I'd say I have mixed feelings honestly. The safety is tough compared to other places I've lived. Overall No regrets on my end..

Bought a house here in 2022 and there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Property values have gone about the same since then.
