What is it like living in Eugene? Moving

My wife might be getting a high paying healthcare job in Eugene, so we are curious what it is like to live there. I have a background in education (direct instruction, academic site management, higher ed). I'm open to other career paths, as the job prospects worry me a bit.

We also want to know how it is to live there. We lived in az for most of our lives. We've been in Texas (DFW) for 3 years. Any insight is appreciated.

Because there is a giant flame throwing rig that rolls around town with a guitarist blasting solos.

JK. Its not remotely like a Mad Max movie set. I guarantee you'll see more Teslas than raggedy cars with plastic bags for windows. People just get their kicks talking shit on this sub. Just come here and visit.
