As someone who grew up here, it's been a really good experience overall. A lot has changed in the past few years though. nightlife used to be much pricey but now it's tough.

Bought a house here in 2023 and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Property values have gone down slightly since then.

The food scene here is solid. Tons of great BBQ places. I love the pace of life here.

I've lived in West for about 14 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

it's been a really good experience overall. When I first moved here from Portland, I was surprised by job market. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- The school system scene is underrated

The downsides:
- Rising rent and home prices
- Not very walkable outside downtown

Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for couples. Hope this helps!.
