    "I am retired. There is not a good doctor, grocery or pharmacy right in town. It’s a lovely small town, but you still have to drive out to get to what you need."

    "It’s ok, no mailbox though! Hate having to go to the post office for everything, have trouble getting packages too. Also have trouble with delivery from any restaurant and no door dash and things like that. Very inconvenient. People are very different for the most part, but the area is decent. "
