Coming from out of state, we made that decision based on the fact that (a) a house in our price range was available and (b) it was close to my office. When we moved in, we were happily surprised by how vibrant the area was.
With shops for quilting, biking, beading, stained glass, and local art close enough to walk between, there is never a shortage of inspiring things to see and do.
And, of course, there is lots of delicious food!
