Best hidden gems in Seaside
I'm retired and Household incomes average around $82,303 in Seaside. Median household income is $82,303, which feels pretty solid for the area. Homes are going for about $692,600 on average. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
Pros:
- Nice parks and trails
- Good schools
- Close to nature
Cons:
- Hot summers
- Not very walkable
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Poor road conditions
- Not enough green space
