Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a physical therapist who relocated here from Denver about 3 years ago. The main reasons were a job opportunity and cost of living.
Pros I've experienced:
- Good schools in most areas
- Strong sense of community
- Lots of family-friendly activities
Cons that are real:
- Limited public transit options
- Winters are long and cold
Financially, we've found it tough compared to where we came from. It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. Groceries are manageable, gas is surprisingly good.
Socially, I love the pace of life here. Would recommend to anyone considering it..
