OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 3 years ago from Boston and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in Springfield. It's pretty good for what you get.

Jobs: The market is competitive right now, especially in real estate. If you're in legal you might struggle.

People: Generally excellent. It took about 4 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: average. Tons of options if you like seafood.

Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
