Planning a move to Twentynine Palms -neighborhoods?

Hi all, The median home value here is around $238,400, which is actually reasonable. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 8 years ago from San Francisco and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Lots of new construction which should help. We're paying /mo for a 4-bed in Riverside. It's improving for what you get.

Jobs: The market is competitive right now, especially in engineering. If you're in manufacturing you might struggle.

People: Generally pretty good. It took about 9 months to build a solid friend group.

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

Would recommend to anyone considering it..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 2 years ago from Dallas and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: The market is competitive but not impossible. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in Cedar Grove. It's average for what you get.

Jobs: The market is manageable right now, especially in consulting. If you're in manufacturing you might struggle.

People: Generally tough. It took about 17 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: pretty good. Tons of options if you like Southern.

Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
