Hamilton County Reviews
Rating 4 out of 5 3 reviews
Hamilton is a town of about 3000 people. If you like the outdoors, agriculture, and nice people this is your place. Hamilton County is the dove hunting capital of the country. Everyone knows their neighbor, community is valued and football rules!
What I like about Hamilton County is that people may be all up in your business because it is a small town but when something bad happens everybody gets together to help out. The community is very involved with the school, specially with sports. Our girls varsity made it to regionals for the first time in 20 years and the whole town was very excited and supportive. We do have a problem with drugs but I still consider this town safe because there is no big thefts, rapes, or murders. The town is not very diverse, even though there has been an increase of Hispanic residents. It is still a dominantly white town. There is good people but there is racism and prejudice in Hamilton. The town is mostly Republican and very conservative. Another negative of the town is that our medical staff in the clinic and hospital is not very good. We do have a couple of good doctors but a lot of the time they disregard any concerns that patients have.
Hamilton is a very small town but many people from close towns come to shop. It would be nice to have a bigger store or some more restaurants to create more job opportunities.
