It's a nice enough place overall, but it's a very small town, with people all up in each other's business and too concerned with bureaucratic nonsense. Not much goes on, which can be a pro or a con depending on the person.
Review Beecher
The town gives off a plain atmosphere. There aren't too many things to do in a small town like this, and since everybody knows everybody, there aren't too many problems that arise like crime. Compared to the rest of the country, this is just another small country town with nothing to do.
The prevalence of crime in this area is pretty low. There are occasional fights happening every now and then but never anything serious. The police overall do pretty well in maintaining the peace.
