Have you come to visit the city at all? I imagine so, you must have a place to live already if you're moving in a month (I'm sorry if you've already mentioned it previously and I don't remember)

That is what makes this move so scary, my husband works for the govt and he got this position while we were out of the country on vacation. We basically had no time to visit the city before deciding and moving. Regardless, I think we are moving into a good area and will be staying for about 2 years so for now, there is not TOO much panic...

It can get "cold" here, but the winters are very short. But it gets in the single digits in the winters at night. But winter only lasts a month or two. To me, it doesn't get cold enough! It may "snow" a few times, but only 1/2" or so and it melts the next day.
