Moving to Wilton with kids -good idea?

Hey folks, The unemployment rate is 1.1%, which is pretty low. Homes are going for about $891,200 on average. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Worth the trade-offs? Thanks for reading. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Property taxes are high but you get good services. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Property taxes are high but you get good services.

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