Random thought, Been living here since 2020. Rent is about $2,197/month for a decent place. It's a a smaller city city with about 59,485 people. Average temperature is around 65--F, so the weather is moderate. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The city has invested a lot in new development. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The weather takes some getting used to.

Night life is decent if you know the right spots. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The weather takes some getting used to.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem hit or miss.

I've been here 1 years and it was the best decision I ever made. The thing nobody mentions is healthcare. It's stable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the school system is legit. And if you're into surfing, this place is challenging.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The East side vs the The Heights side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

Came here for weather and stayed because there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The safety is honestly better than expected and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
