Sioux Falls is a great place to live with lots restaurants, shopping, hospitals/clinics and schools. It has many safe, quiet neighborhoods and is surrounded by many small towns and cornfields! It has a fabulous intestate system that allows for fast transportation except for at rush hour. South Dakota offers a wide variety of weather and activities; Sioux Falls is a perfect place if you love a city feel but enjoy getting out of town and hunting/hiking/driving.
I have really enjoyed living in Sioux Falls. They have an amazing selection of restaurants, and entertainment. I've really enjoyed going to Tokyo, Huhot, and Subway! My absolute favorite is Tasteas because they serve bubble tea with boba. It reminds me of my exchange trip to Japan! As for the entertainment, they've got gaming, public pools, and annual fairs. Sioux Falls is probably the best place to try anything and everything; even if we have wacky weather.
I like Sioux Falls because it is my home town. I have lived here since I was a year and a half. There are quite a few things to do in Sioux Falls, though some do cost money. The city is becoming bigger and more diverse. If you have children, there are many fun things for you to do with them! There are parks, nature parks (for hiking), fun restaurants, swimming pools, a butterfly house, and many more! It is family-friendly and there are schools all over the city so depending on where you live, there should be a school district you are close to. Some things I would like to see change is the crime rate. I never saw this city as a city full of crime but within the last year, I feel way more has been happening. It is NOT safe to go to Walmart or anywhere by yourself now. I recommend bringing someone else with you. I would like to see less crime happening, but that is something I cannot change personally.
