Relocating to Trujillo Alto zona urbana, PR -pros and cons?

Hi all, I work in logistics and Crime rate is something to consider -Trujillo Alto zona urbana sits at 2,771.8 per 100K. It's a a smaller city city with about 43,752 people. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Anyone in a similar situation? It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The weather takes some getting used to. The suburbs are where most families end up. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is job market. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Worth doing your research before committing.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 7 years ago from Miami and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in East. It's underrated for what you get.

Jobs: The market is reasonable right now, especially in retail. If you're in education you might struggle.

People: Generally improving. It took about 16 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: tough. Tons of options if you like Asian.

Good luck with whatever you decide..
