What's it really like living in Show Low?

I'm single, late 50s, and Median household income is $63,376, which feels about average for the area. Average temperature is around 53--F, so expect cold winters. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Is this normal for Show Low? Cheers.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 13 years ago from Tampa and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 4-bed in Pine Hills. It's underrated for what you get.

Jobs: The market is pricey right now, especially in education. If you're in finance you might struggle.

People: Generally average. It took about 8 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: average. Tons of options if you like craft beer.

Definitely worth checking out..

The food scene here is challenging. Tons of great Vietnamese places. I genuinely enjoy living here.
