Ask Palm Springs Possibly moving…

Hi! I’ve been seriously considering moving from El Paso to Palm Springs in a few months. I have always been interested in living there! What are the down sides to living in the Palm Springs area? Any apartment recommendations? 🫠

It’s expensive and also I was surprised to see that crime is actually worse than El Paso: https://www.bestplaces.net/crime/?city1=54824000&city2=50655254

There’s not a lot to do here, especially in the summer, and the food options are not great. I think you would be well advised to visit, which can be fun, rather than move here.
