Thinking about relocating to Sierra Madre from Phoenix

Hello, I work in insurance and Poverty rate is 3.8%, which is pretty low. Rent is about $2,086/month for a decent place. The unemployment rate is 1.8%, which is pretty low. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Thanks! The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The suburbs are where most families end up. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, it's been a really good experience overall. Would recommend to anyone considering it..
