    "Great place to live! Very family friendly. Definitely need a car if you want to get anywhere, no public transit available. Definitely more rural than urban so be aware for those moving from large cities. This is a home town feel where your neighbors say hello and everyone is friendly. Better for families with children or older couples looking for peace and quiet."
