Unpopular opinion about Troy

People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Thoughts? The school system varies a lot by neighborhood.

As someone who grew up here, it was the best decision I ever made. A lot has changed in the past few years though. traffic used to be much wild but now it's solid.

As someone who grew up here, there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. A lot has changed in the past few years though. housing market used to be much manageable but now it's decent.

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 4-bedroom. it's exactly what I was looking for. Compared to San Diego it's surprisingly good.

Used to live on the Midtown side, now on the Westside side. Completely different vibe. I love the pace of life here.

Bought a house here in 2017 and I love the pace of life here. Property values have gone down slightly since then.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 6 years ago from Tampa and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Lots of new construction which should help. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in West. It's pretty good for what you get.

Jobs: The market is pricey right now, especially in healthcare. If you're in real estate you might struggle.

People: Generally surprisingly good. It took about 4 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: excellent. Tons of options if you like Southern.

Happy to answer more specific questions..
