Our Take
You’ll get a decent commute and a solid median income, but the area’s low walkability, minimal transit and high property crime make it a tough fit for families or those who want a quieter, safer neighborhood. Consider it if you’re a young professional who can drive to work and don’t mind the traffic.

- ✓Median home value is moderate, not sky‑high, so it might still be a realistic purchase for a first‑time homeowner.
