Hey, I've been here for 4 years and The median home value here is around $594,600, which is pretty steep. Poverty rate is 9.0%, which is pretty low. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Any advice would be great. Thanks! People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.

My experience has been mostly positive. it's exactly what I was looking for. The only thing I'd watch out for is cost of living. Other than that, Would recommend to anyone considering it..

I've been living here for 7 years and I'd say I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The job market is challenging compared to other places I've lived. Overall Feel free to reach out with questions..

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a physical therapist who relocated here from Seattle about 12 years ago. The main reasons were school and my partner's job.
Pros I've experienced:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Strong job market in several industries
Cons that are real:
- Rising rent and home prices
- Limited high-paying job options
Financially, we've found it improving compared to where we came from. The market is competitive but not impossible. Groceries are wild, gas is decent.
Socially, it's improved dramatically in recent years. Good luck with whatever you decide..
