Random thought, I work in real estate and Homes are going for about $265,900 on average. Poverty rate is 18.5%, which is higher than I expected. Household incomes average around $39,751 in Starkville. Median household income is $39,751, which feels on the lower side for the area. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. The weather takes some getting used to. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The city has invested a lot in new development. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The weather takes some getting used to.
