My experience has been mostly positive. it's improved dramatically in recent years. The only thing I'd watch out for is public transit. Other than that, It's not for everyone but it works for us..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 13 years ago from Seattle and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: The market is competitive but not impossible. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in Downtown. It's average for what you get.

Jobs: The market is reasonable right now, especially in marketing. If you're in hospitality you might struggle.

People: Generally challenging. It took about 16 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: better than expected. Tons of options if you like craft beer.

Definitely worth checking out..

Used to live on the Highland side, now on the Cedar Grove side. Completely different vibe. I'm still on the fence after all this time.
