Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a electrician who relocated here from Austin about 6 years ago. The main reasons were a job opportunity and family.
Pros I've experienced:
- Good schools in most areas
- Decent public transit for the size
- Affordable housing options
Cons that are real:
- Road conditions need improvement
- Dating scene is rough
Financially, we've found it pretty good compared to where we came from. Older homes are where the value is. Groceries are pricey, gas is better than expected.
Socially, it's improved dramatically in recent years. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is cost of living. it's exactly what I was looking for. Worth doing your research before committing.
