Should I move to Santa Cruz or stay in Tampa?

Alright, Rent is about $2,302/month for a decent place. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.

I've lived in West for about 2 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. When I first moved here from San Francisco, I was surprised by public transit. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Good healthcare facilities
- The food scene scene is better than expected

The downsides:
- Limited public transit options
- Road conditions need improvement

Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for young professionals. Hope this helps!.
