Alright, Born and raised here. Poverty rate is 22.1%, which is higher than I expected. Household incomes average around $57,364 in San Luis. It's a a smaller city city with about 35,998 people. With a population of 35,998, San Luis is a smaller city. The weather takes some getting used to. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Would love some local perspective. Looking forward to hearing from you all. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, I genuinely enjoy living here. Happy to answer more specific questions..

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem excellent.
I've been here 10 years and it's exactly what I was looking for. The thing nobody mentions is school system. It's manageable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the pet-friendliness is legit. And if you're into rock climbing, this place is excellent.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Riverside side vs the Cedar Grove side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
