I've lived in Springfield for about 10 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

it's exactly what I was looking for. When I first moved here from Nashville, I was surprised by public transit. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Four distinct seasons
- Affordable housing options
- The housing market scene is pretty good

The downsides:
- Winters are long and cold
- Far from beaches/mountains

Overall I'd rate it 5/10 for young professionals. Definitely worth checking out..
