Not sure if this has been asked before, but Average temperature is around 62--F, so the weather is moderate. Poverty rate is 24.3%, which is higher than I expected. Household incomes average around $37,827 in Smithfield. Rent is about $601/month for a decent place. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Any advice would be great. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

The food scene here is average. Tons of great Mediterranean places. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now.

My experience has been mostly positive. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The only thing I'd watch out for is cost of living. Other than that, Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

As someone who grew up here, I'm still on the fence after all this time. A lot has changed in the past few years though. food scene used to be much manageable but now it's hit or miss.
