"We currently live in Garretson and like the area, but the only access point into and out of town involve crossing the main, heavily-used railroad lines. This is where trains go to switch cars and directions, and they do it at all times of day, especially when leaving for work or coming home. Otherwise, the community is clean and nice, the neighbors and lovely, and the school is supposedly good (no kids, so don't know). There is a grocery store with decent prices, but the only restaurant is a coffee house that isn't open when people who live here and work elsewhere are home. Parks are wonderful! Split Rock Creek and Devil's Gulch are places I could go every day. My dog loves them more than I do. Consider your priorities, they may match this town."
