    The atmosphere of my community is light and friendly. Everyone pretty much knows everyone, but if someone new comes to town, there's no doubt that someone will make them feel comfortable within our community. If I had to start all over again, I wouldn't change anything! My community is a small, loving town mostly based on good moral values which influenced my life, as well as many other's lives, in a very positive way. I am continuously seeing businesses grow and move in. I believe that this area is slowly but steadily expanding and see great things in the future.

    Haskell is a small town that was a fun place to grow up at. Although there isn't much to do because it is such a small town, the community feeling is completely worth it!
    For a student coming to live in my city as they complete there college degree(s), it is a wonderful place to live and blossom in. I really enjoy all of the leisure activities, volunteer opportunities, and places that I can go to and have fun at. With family members and many friends here, it makes this city even greater than when I first moved here. I've really enjoyed staying here so far, and could even possibly see myself settling down here because I love the city's atmosphere so much.
