Living in Waukee -the reality

Random thought, Rent is about $1,290/month for a decent place. Median household income is $106,728, which feels pretty solid for the area. The unemployment rate is 3.2%, which is pretty low. Poverty rate is 5.7%, which is pretty low. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Anyone in a similar situation? There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Property taxes are high but you get good services. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The suburbs are where most families end up. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.

As someone who grew up here, it's exactly what I was looking for. A lot has changed in the past few years though. weather used to be much growing but now it's tough.
