I'm single, late 30s, and Median household income is $27,500, which feels on the lower side for the area. The weather takes some getting used to. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Appreciate any input. The city has invested a lot in new development. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.
