Weather-wise, the summers are average and winters are competitive. You get used to it after the first year.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem solid.
I've been here 5 years and it's been a really good experience overall. The thing nobody mentions is nightlife. It's pricey and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the community vibe is legit. And if you're into mountain biking, this place is improving.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Westside side vs the Oak Park side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Hope this helps!.
