    "Car, 5 minutes to work. Few stoplights in town. Friendly drivers except those from Massachusetts and New York. Main Street gets bogged down with traffic but there are several back ways to get around town. Good city for driving in general."

    "Deteriorating economics, falling home prices, difficult to sell homes, few jobs, really bad schools, more and more poor people in trailer parks. There's not much of a future here."
