So, The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Anyone in a similar situation? Appreciate any input.

Public transit is improving here. You'll probably need a car for most things. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a nurse who relocated here from Austin about 11 years ago. The main reasons were weather and quality of life.
Pros I've experienced:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Strong job market in several industries
Cons that are real:
- Dating scene is rough
- Limited entertainment options
Financially, we've found it better than expected compared to where we came from. Lots of new construction which should help. Groceries are developing, gas is tough.
Socially, I have mixed feelings honestly. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..
