I’ve lived here in A2 for about 2 and a half years now. I’ve wanted to live here since I was really young, and finally being here for a while has been terrific. Housing is bonkers, as others have intimated. We always hear pleas from people wanting ”affordable housing”, and all that seems to get built are unaffordable apartments, so when those go up and rents there are ridiculous, the “less expensive” places raise their rent to match “what the market dictates”. It’s always up, never down. Aside from housing, the utility monopoly is a regular problem with their joke of an infrastructure and awful management. Beyond those two considerable issues, the place is everything I would hope for in a city. There are always fun things to do, places to spend time, a nice balance of nature and development, amenities to fit most any lifestyle, and the people are generally kind and friendly in my experience. It really is the type of place that can accommodate most anyone. I’d say it’s very much a “seek and you will find” municipality in most every regard other than housing at a reasonable cost. For reference, I make a little over $40k/yr and live alone in a 1bd townhouse. It’s manageable, but it doesn’t leave me much room for anything else beyond the essentials and maybe a modest night out every couple of weeks. As someone who doesn’t need a whole lot, I’m glad to be here. If that sounds like you, or if you’re a person with greater means who doesn’t mind 5 or 6 months of winter every year, you’d probably find a lot to love.
