Is Shoshone worth it salary-wise?

Been meaning to ask this. My partner and I are Poverty rate is 4.9%, which is pretty low. The unemployment rate is 5.7%, which is about average. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Has anyone dealt with this?

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is outdoor recreation. I'm still on the fence after all this time. Worth doing your research before committing.

I've been living here for 13 years and I'd say it's been a really good experience overall. The job market is average compared to other places I've lived. Overall Definitely worth checking out..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 9 years ago from Boston and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in Old Town. It's improving for what you get.

Jobs: The market is growing right now, especially in healthcare. If you're in government you might struggle.

People: Generally decent. It took about 17 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: surprisingly good. Tons of options if you like Mexican.

Would recommend to anyone considering it..
