Very nice and "homey" town! The only thing is that it's very divided by views on the world. Typically the younger generations of this county are more left-leaning, whereas the older generations are more conservative. There is a very clear divide between these two groups, as it is often showed through their community engagement.
This county is very accepting of my presence. The people who I have met were some of the nicest people. Food also is very easy to find since I live close to a farm. This also creates opportunities like "Grow a row" where anyone can come and grow a few vegetables to help lessen food insecurity. I have so far had no problems concerning personal safety, everyone does mind their own business. One small gripe is that there is a high rodent presence, but usually its field mice. I would not recommend it to anyone who doesn't like rodents. Also, while driving, especially at night, there is a high deer presence so I'd advise anyone to pay attention to the road. Overall, not bad.
I have always felt so safe and happy here. My neighbors are so friendly, all of the houses always look so nice and neat. I've never felt threatened living here. The schools around here, I loved. I have so many good memories. Everyone that came through the schools with me agreed that we were prepared for the next grade each year. There is so many things to do around here. So many places to eat, play games or hangout with friends. I never feel bored or the need to travel far to have fun. When I started looking for a job, there was so many openings and they were all diverse, so I found a job that fit me. I have never felt overwhelmed with driving, if I need something its close by. All of my daily drives are very short with limited traffic. I love it here and i'll be sad to leave soon!
