Hillsdale County is a small town I have grown up in for 18 years and my experiences have always been very comfortably safe. Hillsdale provides me with some job opportunities, in a small community along with very close friends. Being in a small town has had its weaknesses however. I have been living in such a small area sometimes I forget there is so much more out there. I do not plan on staying in Hillsdale County only because I want to see more of the world.
Hillsdale County is what one would consider to be a diamond in the rough. It is home to the elite Hillsdale College and has much more to it than what would meet the eye. It is a well-knit community and offers all the benefits of a small town atmosphere, while still being face paced. There are a variety of things to do and would make any outsider feel at home.
I have grown up in Hillsdale county and i personally have never had a problem with it. It is a super small town with a family friendly community. There are many events and shops that are open to the public everyday, so there is always something to do. One of my favorite things to do is to explore all of the parks and lakes that are available here.
