Hey folks, It's a a smaller city city with about 48,818 people. Median household income is $42,015, which feels on the lower side for the area. You can expect to pay around $944 for rent here. The median home value here is around $230,900, which is actually reasonable. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 11 years ago from New York and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: Lots of new construction which should help. We're paying /mo for a 4-bed in Greenfield. It's tough for what you get.
Jobs: The market is competitive right now, especially in healthcare. If you're in construction you might struggle.
People: Generally average. It took about 16 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: underrated. Tons of options if you like Korean.
