Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem surprisingly good.
I've been here 10 years and there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The thing nobody mentions is weather. It's wild and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the outdoor recreation is legit. And if you're into mountain biking, this place is hit or miss.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Sunset side vs the Highland side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Hope this helps!.

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

I've lived in Greenfield for about 6 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I have mixed feelings honestly. When I first moved here from Raleigh, I was surprised by cost of living. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Nice parks and green spaces
- The weather scene is challenging
The downsides:
- Limited shopping options
- Bugs and humidity in summer
Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for retirees. Definitely worth checking out..

I'm a sales manager and I've found I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The community is underrated and there's always something going on.
