Job market in South Valley for tech?

OK so I relocated for work and Crime rate is something to consider -South Valley sits at 882.9 per 100K. Should I be concerned?

We moved here with our family and it's improved dramatically in recent years. Schools in Springfield area are decent. Kids love it here.

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is outdoor recreation. I love the pace of life here. Worth doing your research before committing.

I've been living here for 5 years and I'd say it was the best decision I ever made. The public transit is improving compared to other places I've lived. Overall Hope this helps!.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 14 years ago from Minneapolis and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: The market is competitive but not impossible. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in The Heights. It's hit or miss for what you get.

Jobs: The market is stable right now, especially in tech. If you're in marketing you might struggle.

People: Generally average. It took about 4 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: tough. Tons of options if you like seafood.

Happy to answer more specific questions..

I'm a lawyer and I've found there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The community is underrated and there's always something going on.
