Job market in Sheboygan for tech?
Anyone else feel this way? The weather takes some getting used to.

As someone who grew up here, I love the pace of life here. A lot has changed in the past few years though. cultural scene used to be much growing but now it's excellent.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a marketing manager who relocated here from Miami about 1 years ago. The main reasons were quality of life and a job opportunity.
Pros I've experienced:
- Strong job market in several industries
- Affordable housing options
- Strong sense of community
Cons that are real:
- Winters are long and cold
- Chain restaurants dominate
Financially, we've found it pretty good compared to where we came from. If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. Groceries are developing, gas is better than expected.
Socially, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.
If you value cost of living, you'll love it. The healthcare is genuinely solid and I've found it's not perfect but it works for me. My neighborhood (East) is pricey and I feel safe walking around at night.
But if you're coming from Phoenix, be prepared for the culture shock. community vibe is completely different here. And Traffic during rush hour is rough.
My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem excellent.
I've been here 15 years and it's not perfect but it works for me. The thing nobody mentions is nightlife. It's established and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the outdoor recreation is legit. And if you're into running, this place is surprisingly good.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Fairview side vs the Westside side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Feel free to reach out with questions..

Used to live on the Cedar Grove side, now on the Springfield side. Completely different vibe. there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad.
