Some positives: cheaper, beautiful nature around the city, nice public transportation, a little more compassionate oriented government, small town feel…great people.
Some negatives: cold, rainy, dark, parts of town have so many strip clubs and adult entertainments (a plus to some), too many trees, no HOA = uncut grass in many places, homeless in downtown. Cheaper housing but not that big of a difference. Still have some ugly bridges (to some they are nice).
