I've been here for 2 years and Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Should I be concerned? Looking forward to hearing from you all.

I've lived in Old Town for about 10 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it exceeded my expectations. When I first moved here from Miami, I was surprised by safety. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- Nice parks and green spaces
- The cultural scene scene is tough
The downsides:
- Chain restaurants dominate
- Dating scene is rough
Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for couples. Hope this helps!.

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

The food scene here is average. Tons of great farm-to-table places. I genuinely enjoy living here.

We moved here with our family and I have mixed feelings honestly. Schools in Westside area are solid. Kids love it here.

Used to live on the The Heights side, now on the Downtown side. Completely different vibe. it's not perfect but it works for me.
