Timberwood Park vs Orlando -which is better?

Longtime lurker here, You can expect to pay around $2,012 for rent here. The unemployment rate is 2.5%, which is pretty low. Crime rate is something to consider -Timberwood Park sits at 20.5 per 100K. It's a a smaller city city with about 34,980 people. The median home value here is around $469,900, which is pretty steep. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Property taxes are high but you get good services.

Pros:
- Lots of new development
- Active local events
- Good airport connections

Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Hot summers
- Homelessness issues downtown

Hot take but it was the best decision I ever made. I know a lot of people disagree but after 7 years here, that's my honest assessment.
