What I wish I knew before living in Vineland

Anyone else feel this way? I'm a teacher here and It's a a smaller city city with about 60,692 people. Average temperature is around 55--F, so expect cold winters. The unemployment rate is 5.1%, which is about average. Property taxes are high but you get good services. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.

Pros:
- Nice parks and trails
- Easy commute
- Good healthcare facilities
- Walkable downtown
- Good internet infrastructure

Cons:
- Sprawl everywhere
- Limited dining options
- Limited cultural events
- Not enough green space
Any advice would be great. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The suburbs are where most families end up. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Property taxes are high but you get good services. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The weather takes some getting used to. The weather takes some getting used to.

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Feel free to reach out with questions..
