I've lived in Fairview for about 7 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I have mixed feelings honestly. When I first moved here from San Diego, I was surprised by cost of living. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Lots of new development happening
- The safety scene is hit or miss
The downsides:
- Limited public transit options
- Far from beaches/mountains
Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for singles. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 8 years ago from San Diego and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Greenfield. It's challenging for what you get.
Jobs: The market is developing right now, especially in engineering. If you're in engineering you might struggle.
People: Generally better than expected. It took about 12 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: hit or miss. Tons of options if you like farm-to-table.
Definitely worth checking out..

Came here for retirement and stayed because the quality of life is solid. The housing market is honestly underrated and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
