Longtime lurker here, Median household income is $88,378, which feels pretty solid for the area. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Am I overthinking this? Thanks for reading.

I've lived in Old Town for about 3 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I genuinely enjoy living here. When I first moved here from Minneapolis, I was surprised by job market. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Growing food and restaurant scene
- The cultural scene scene is better than expected
The downsides:
- Rising rent and home prices
- Far from beaches/mountains
Overall I'd rate it 5/10 for couples. No regrets on my end..

Hot take but I love the pace of life here. I know a lot of people disagree but after 8 years here, that's my honest assessment.
