I like the safe, small town feel. Friendly, helpful people. Unfortunately shopping here is extremely limited. Unless you want to buy all of your clothes at Walmart online shopping is a necessity (no exaggeration). There is no form of public transportation which is fine, I guess, since nightlife consists of alcohol and more alcohol which greatly aids law enforcement in making lots of money for the county and state with DUIs. There is a saying here "Welcome to Dickinson County. Come on vacation, leave on probation". Alcoholism and drug abuse run rampant. Very little crime here, which is good because the police can't solve murders and can't locate missing people. If you love the great outdoors this is the place for you. Lots of opportunity for for water sports, hiking, winter outdoor sports, 4 wheeling, nature walking, etc. Very beautiful area with distinct 4 seasons.
The city council won't allow any outside businesses in so our economy is hurting. There are other councils attempting to grow the town with local businesses but the population cannot withstand the higher prices. It is being overrun by dollar stores and dollar tree stores. A lot of drugs there too.
Beautiful scenery and cute shops. The one main complaint I have is the lack of public transportation.
