Average temperature is around 55--F, so the weather is moderate. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Is this normal for Wildewood? Appreciate any input. Property taxes are high but you get good services. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 13 years ago from New York and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in South. It's average for what you get.

Jobs: The market is affordable right now, especially in engineering. If you're in engineering you might struggle.

People: Generally excellent. It took about 11 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: decent. Tons of options if you like Korean.

Good luck with whatever you decide..

The food scene here is better than expected. Tons of great Korean places. there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad.
