Hello, I work in food service and Poverty rate is 15.3%, which is higher than I expected. Crime rate is something to consider -Socorro sits at 765.9 per 100K. Rent is about $675/month for a decent place. It's a a small town city with about 8,540 people. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Worth the trade-offs? It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.
