Is Waterloo getting better or worse?
My partner and I are The unemployment rate is 4.2%, which is about average. Median household income is $56,344, which feels about average for the area. It's a a smaller city city with about 66,947 people. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The city has invested a lot in new development. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.
Pros:
- Lots of new development
- Good internet infrastructure
- Active local events
Cons:
- Cold winters
- Lack of diversity
- Few job opportunities in some fields
Any advice would be great. Thanks for reading. The suburbs are where most families end up. The suburbs are where most families end up. The suburbs are where most families end up.

Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The weather takes some getting used to. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The suburbs are where most families end up. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.
