Rate a whole city? It falls in the middle not the best city or the worst city. To be fair it still a small town feel with a joined connected high school on the south east side of town. A strange high school that had two identities sharing one foundation and a field house, and natatorium. After looking back this was a nice town to grow up in. Safe conservative on the other hand its downfall depended on a handful of jobs from big companies which a few come to mind, West Bend co, Mallard, Amity, Gehl co. A few clinics and health care and public education. Not to mention a few grocery stores that also provided jobs as well. As kids we would enjoy regner, ridge run and decorah hills park all year round. Plenty of things to do while on foot, bikes, sleds or skates. The public library underwent major expansion and it was good to see that down had some improvement as well. We have seen the rise and fall of the outlet mall the lack of a local hospital is proof that Aurora and money talks. Stubborn politics that makes the people suffer in the end. Hopefully the new growth of the South bypass and development of paradise drive will continue to sustain and support growth for years to come.
