Curious what people think. You can expect to pay around $1,575 for rent here. It's a a smaller city city with about 35,168 people. With a population of 35,168, Wildwood is a smaller city. Rent is about $1,575/month for a decent place. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood.

Pros:

Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Cold winters
- Limited nightlife
- Limited dining options
- Boring for young people

Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Property taxes are high but you get good services.

It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The city has invested a lot in new development. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting.

We moved here with our family and there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Schools in Pine Hills area are improving. Kids love it here.
