Carson Torres moving

Should I move to Thief River Falls or stay in Chicago?

Curious what people think. I'm a nurse at the local hospital and Rent is about $884/month for a decent place. Crime rate is something to consider -Thief River Falls sits at 68.0 per 100K. You can expect to pay around $884 for rent here. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. What neighborhoods would you suggest? Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The weather takes some getting used to. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The city has invested a lot in new development. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.

Came here for a job opportunity and stayed because it's been a really good experience overall. The dating scene is honestly better than expected and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
