Hey folks, We're a young couple and The median home value here is around $657,700, which is pretty steep. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Am I wrong here? I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The suburbs are where most families end up. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.

Weather-wise, the summers are surprisingly good and winters are pricey. You get used to it after the first year.

I've lived in South for about 12 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I genuinely enjoy living here. When I first moved here from LA, I was surprised by dating scene. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Good schools in most areas
- The safety scene is challenging
The downsides:
- Traffic during rush hour is rough
- Road conditions need improvement
Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for remote workers. Feel free to reach out with questions..

We moved here with our family and it was the best decision I ever made. Schools in Downtown area are underrated. Kids love it here.
