Good place to Live!
Sioux City is an excellent place to live and raise a family. Don't look at the crime statistics because there really is hardly any violent crime. Gangs come and go and the city is very pro-active to eradicate them as soon as they become known. The city is growing retail wise, with many offerings that towns of similar size already have. Over 3 MM sq. ft of new space available. The city has a new 10,000 seat arena so concerts look to stop in the area. The city is trying to revitalize the downtown core and stockyards area. Sioux City also has Nebraska and South Dakota in its Metro area. Those statistics do not get included with these. another 20,000 people live within 5 miles of the city limits. There may show net migration, but people move to South Dakota frequently because of tax advantages that Iowa residents cannot have.
