I've been here for 17 years and Household incomes average around $71,731 in Traverse City. Average temperature is around 47--F, so expect cold winters. Homes are going for about $367,600 on average. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The suburbs are where most families end up. Am I wrong here? Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. The weather takes some getting used to.

The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The city has invested a lot in new development. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood.
