- !Limited local dining and nightlife options, requiring trips to nearby Sioux Falls for more variety.
- !While the census data is older, real estate prices have appreciated significantly, so the entry point is higher now.
- !Lack of readily available localized crime data means making assumptions based on general area trends.
- $Essential car ownership and associated maintenance and fuel costs.
- $Potential for higher property taxes given the strong school system and community amenities.
- $Reliance on Sioux Falls for many services and entertainment, adding to travel expenses.
