Monroe County Reviews

I would like to have bitter things to say about growing up in Monroe County like the average small-town girl, but it was pleasant, and I’ll be leaving soon. Most people will show you extreme kindness, and there is just about any job you could ever dream of seeing as the border of Monroe County is shared with Toledo. The social life around here can be a little boring unless you’re a middle aged man looking for a drink, but other than that, if you’re looking for some entertainment a late night Kroger run is always up for option.
Monroe is a peaceful community, I love the people and atmosphere. Every store has the nicest individuals and don’t judge me based on my darker skin, I love the country!
Our town is great but seems to be going downhill! We have great stores and restaurants, but we also have a lot of bad stores and bad restaurants (on the bad side of town). Most of the people are great! There are also a lot of ‘trashy’ people that live in Monroe. I hope that soon, our county will look and be a better place for families to visit and live.
