Unpopular opinion about Schertz

Hey everyone, I'm a 42-year-old HR manager and Crime rate is something to consider -Schertz sits at 184.2 per 100K. Median household income is $96,633, which feels pretty solid for the area. Poverty rate is 4.6%, which is pretty low. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Property taxes are high but you get good services. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The suburbs are where most families end up. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The weather takes some getting used to. The weather takes some getting used to.

Came here for school and stayed because I have mixed feelings honestly. The job market is honestly pretty good and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Bought a house here in 2019 and it's not perfect but it works for me. Property values have gone about the same since then.
