OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 6 years ago from Denver and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. We're paying /mo for a 4-bed in Midtown. It's challenging for what you get.
Jobs: The market is stable right now, especially in manufacturing. If you're in real estate you might struggle.
People: Generally underrated. It took about 4 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: underrated. Tons of options if you like Korean.
No regrets on my end..

Came here for work and stayed because the quality of life is solid. The cost of living is honestly average and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem surprisingly good.
I've been here 15 years and I'm still on the fence after all this time. The thing nobody mentions is walkability. It's growing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the food scene is legit. And if you're into surfing, this place is tough.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The West side vs the East side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Happy to answer more specific questions..
