    "Christ church, AMCTheater, schools, park, skate park, edge of town, shopping, minutes from down town."
  • Kathleen T.
    "Farmers market! And just so many alcohol in the courtyard events. I mean, there’s the artisan fair with the craft beer, craft wine, and craft whiskey as the big event. Then there’s the food events featuring spirits as the main event. And also, of course, the craft beer and craft liquor events."
  • Kathleen W.
    "Public and private schools are excellent. There’s a surprising amount of predators in such a small town."
  • Lee.querubin
