"we know all our neighbors and their pets and kids. people here are caring. Everyone knows everyone. Not handicapped compliant town for wheelchairs though. Great little transit with fun drivers! Beautiful area. Deer and wild turkeys in your backyard is awesome. Great Police and fire department. People ❤2 GOSSIP here! SAFE place to land but a vehicle is a must. Town lacks in having entertainment like theater and limited shopping and amenities . "
