Hillsdale Reviews
Rating 3.58 out of 5 12 reviews
Small, conservative town with a friendly atmosphere. Very limited diversity. Extremely low crime rates. Host to Hillsdale College. Close to metropolitan opportunities but far enough away to enjoy the country style of living. Strong education system with public, private, and public charter options available. Nice community for raising families.
It is a small town that lacks drive and ambition, sadly lacking cultural and immersing experiences found elsewhere. The people lack empathy and the ability to create ideas and thoughts not spewed by a politician.
I love the small college town. There is plenty to do outdoors--many lakes, an extensive bike trail, public parks. The downtown remains small, but local business owners have sprung up new coffee places and deli shops that have made it a quaint place to visit. It is very rural, and so it has the issues any small town does with drug areas. However, the college maintains a strong influence on the town, economically and socially.
