Hey everyone, We're a young couple and It's a a small town city with about 13,361 people. Homes are going for about $121,000 on average. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The weather takes some getting used to. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.

I'm a marketing manager and I've found I'm still on the fence after all this time. The community is solid and there's always something going on.

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want healthcare, then yeah this place is great. But if cost of living matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a chef who relocated here from Houston about 9 years ago. The main reasons were family and family.
Pros I've experienced:
- Friendly community, easy to meet people
- Good healthcare facilities
- Lots of family-friendly activities
Cons that are real:
- Traffic during rush hour is rough
- Limited public transit options
Financially, we've found it better than expected compared to where we came from. If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. Groceries are competitive, gas is pretty good.
Socially, it's not perfect but it works for me. Definitely worth checking out..
