First time home buyer in St. Joseph
Anyone else feel this way? I relocated for work and You can expect to pay around $884 for rent here. Household incomes average around $55,578 in St. Joseph. Rent is about $884/month for a decent place. The unemployment rate is 2.8%, which is pretty low. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The city has invested a lot in new development. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.
Pros:
- Nice parks and trails
- Diverse community
- Easy commute
- Good airport connections
Cons:
- Rising rent prices
- Far from major airports
- Chain restaurants dominate
