Best coffee shops in Springfield?

Anyone else feel this way? I'm originally from Boston and Poverty rate is 6.0%, which is pretty low. Crime rate is something to consider -Springfield sits at 130.5 per 100K. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem pretty good.

I've been here 9 years and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The thing nobody mentions is healthcare. It's developing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the job market is legit. And if you're into skiing, this place is hit or miss.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Oak Park side vs the Midtown side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Definitely worth checking out..

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are surprisingly good, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.

I've been living here for 8 years and I'd say the quality of life is solid. The safety is underrated compared to other places I've lived. Overall Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
