Moving to Wixom with kids -good idea?

Longtime lurker here, Born and raised here. You can expect to pay around $974 for rent here. It's a a small town city with about 17,126 people. Rent is about $974/month for a decent place. Homes are going for about $336,200 on average. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Am I wrong here? Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The weather takes some getting used to. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.

I've lived in Sunset for about 2 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I genuinely enjoy living here. When I first moved here from Seattle, I was surprised by cost of living. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Good healthcare facilities
- Active local events and festivals
- The job market scene is solid

The downsides:
- Urban sprawl is real
- Not a lot of cultural diversity

Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for remote workers. Hope this helps!.

My experience has been mostly positive. I love the pace of life here. The only thing I'd watch out for is community vibe. Other than that, Definitely worth checking out..
