How are the schools in Sterling?

I'm retired and The unemployment rate is 3.5%, which is pretty low. Rent is about $1,979/month for a decent place. Crime rate is something to consider -Sterling sits at 194.2 per 100K. Household incomes average around $125,753 in Sterling. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Anyone in a similar situation? TIA! It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The city has invested a lot in new development. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.

I've lived in Cedar Grove for about 7 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. When I first moved here from Dallas, I was surprised by weather. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Lots of new development happening
- Four distinct seasons
- The weather scene is hit or miss

The downsides:
- Homeless population growing downtown
- Bugs and humidity in summer

Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for families. Feel free to reach out with questions..
