Rating 3.5 out of 5 26 reviews
There aren't many things to do in this town; no good stores or restaurants, and poor schools. The people are the only redeeming quality, but even the majority of the teen population is misusing some form of drug (the popular ones right now are weed and vaping with nicotine--at least we've moved past the heroin frenzy of the early 2000s. There isn't too many crime, which is another plus, and there are some pretty nice and new real estate options. Mostly ideal for older couples who won't have any other kids. Note to minorities: St. Francis is about 90% white, and second highest race is Asian at around 5%...so not really a place of diversity. Lots of hicks and not a lot of diversity of thought either unfortunately.
It definitely has that "small town" feel to it, which I really love. The people out here are all very nice and inviting, and the air is amazingly clean and fresh. The only thing that takes away from St. Francis is that you have to drive quite distance to get to any major stores or businesses. Other than that, it's a great town and highly recommend it to others.
This place has that small town feel. The members are strong supporters of the community. We recently made the news because there were three local anonymous donors that paid off the $10,000 student lunch debt. We do have to drive about 20 minutes to go shopping. We do not have many activities available for our youth outside of school based activities. There is a VR arcade, a bowling alley, and Healthy Hangout, which provides a space for our youth to go relax, play Foosball, or sit with friends.
