Hey, I've been here for 2 years and You can expect to pay around $1,807 for rent here. Poverty rate is 5.5%, which is pretty low. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Does this match your experience? It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is walkability. there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Worth doing your research before committing.

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want food scene, then yeah this place is great. But if housing market matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are pretty good, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 4-bedroom. it exceeded my expectations. Compared to Minneapolis it's decent.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem improving.
I've been here 11 years and it's exactly what I was looking for. The thing nobody mentions is cost of living. It's pricey and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the school system is legit. And if you're into biking, this place is solid.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The East side vs the South side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Feel free to reach out with questions..

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem tough.
I've been here 1 years and I'm still on the fence after all this time. The thing nobody mentions is food scene. It's growing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the walkability is legit. And if you're into rock climbing, this place is solid.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Westside side vs the Meadowbrook side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
