Most residents here have been here all their lives that gives a real Hometown feeling. The friendliness is exceptional due to I believe the hometown feeling
I feel like the area in town I live in is age unfriendly. I believe there should be resources for the younger generation as they come up to be involved in recreational activities Sports. There's not a whole lot of activities for the younger generation.
This is a very Hometown feeling area the people are very nice and helpful to each other. I moved here last February from Florida and have been welcomed enthusiastically
