I've lived in Old Town for about 1 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it was the best decision I ever made. When I first moved here from New York, I was surprised by housing market. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- The pet-friendliness scene is pretty good
The downsides:
- Urban sprawl is real
- Property taxes are high
Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for families. Happy to answer more specific questions..

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. the quality of life is solid. Internet is hit or miss in most areas.

Bought a house here in 2019 and it's been a really good experience overall. Property values have gone about the same since then.
