Born and raised here. Average temperature is around 68--F, so the weather is moderate. Homes are going for about $93,000 on average. Median household income is $28,722, which feels on the lower side for the area. The unemployment rate is 6.8%, which is concerning. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The suburbs are where most families end up.

Pros:
- Friendly people
- Low crime in most areas
- Good healthcare facilities
- Active local events

Cons:
- Limited nightlife
- Limited dining options
- Far from major airports
