Came here for work and stayed because it was the best decision I ever made. The job market is honestly improving and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 2 years ago from Austin and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: It's gotten pricier but still beats the coasts. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in Fairview. It's better than expected for what you get.
Jobs: The market is stable right now, especially in real estate. If you're in marketing you might struggle.
People: Generally underrated. It took about 17 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: surprisingly good. Tons of options if you like craft beer.
No regrets on my end..

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.
If you value school system, you'll love it. The safety is genuinely average and I've found it's been a really good experience overall. My neighborhood (Springfield) is growing and I feel safe walking around at night.
But if you're coming from Tampa, be prepared for the culture shock. weather is completely different here. And Winters are long and cold.
My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.

I'm a physical therapist and I've found there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The community is tough and there's always something going on.

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. it's not perfect but it works for me. Internet is average in most areas.

I've been living here for 15 years and I'd say I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The dating scene is average compared to other places I've lived. Overall Would recommend to anyone considering it..

We moved here with our family and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Schools in Lakewood area are improving. Kids love it here.
