The Dalles housing prices -when will it stop?
Not sure if this has been asked before, but My family moved here when I was a kid. The unemployment rate is 4.3%, which is about average. Crime rate is something to consider -The Dalles sits at 177.8 per 100K. Household incomes average around $62,830 in The Dalles. The city has invested a lot in new development. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The weather takes some getting used to. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.
Pros:
- Good job market
- Low taxes
- Walkable downtown
- Good internet infrastructure
- Active local events
Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Not very walkable
- Lack of diversity
- Boring for young people
- Poor road conditions
