Look, this place is mostly farmland or open fields. If you are looking for the city lifestyle this is not the place for you, but if you like quiet places, stars, and general safety then look no further.
There is hardly ever any violent crime. There is, on occasion, drug-related crimes, but more in the larger towns or cities around where I live. The police in our town are pretty good at keeping things under control and responding when needed.
I love living where I currently do because of the beautiful scenery that you can observe in a 30 mile radius. The taxes aren't too high and the people are friendly, and the high schools aren't enormous so you get a sense of community. It's the type of area I would want to raise a family.
