The historic downtown features local shops and restaurants, while the weekly farmers market showcases regional produce. The city's neighborhoods include preserved Victorian-era homes near campus and contemporary residential communities throughout the area. Current rental trends show moderate increases, with one-bedroom apartments averaging $1,201, representing a 2.5% year-over-year increase, while two-bedroom units average $1,411.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
