Disabled people can not apply for health care. - 3/24/2021
I have lived in Alliance for 3 years love the town . THE REALITY IS RELIABLE HEALTH CARE HAS TO BE FOUND OUT OF TOWN NEARST IS 50MIN DRIVE AWAY.
IN 3 YEARS 3 DOCTORS HAVE LEFT . WE Have gotten A INSANE CHARGE FOR ESTABLISHING WITH A NEW MD IN THE SAME OFFICE each time.
Today I was told my autistic daughter was the only one allowed in the hospital for her appointment. Only her, no advocate, so My autistic daughter could not go to her appointment. A new crazy rule so I feel they are now doing selective Healthcare. People with disabilities will have to travel for their needs.

Alliance, Nebtaska is a horrible place to live - 1/15/2016
The crime rate is high. I have never lived anywhere where there are so many suicides, murders and unexplained deaths. The meth is unbelievable. I have seen so many young people who had such potential destroy their lives and their loved ones with meth. The meth traffic is incredible. I would never live here

this town is horrible - 9/22/2013
Don't move here!! Even for the railroad it is not worth it.. If you have kids the school system is awful I have never in my life seen a school so messed up. Pregnancy rates are through the roof, std's are insanely out of control the schools don't care about your child or their education. The hospital here will no joke kill you they have done it time and time again for pnemonia and diabeties... doubt me? I've watched it happen on several accounts. Marriage, if your married it won't last long here. Spouses are always cheating because nobody around here cares if your married and nobody respects what marriage stands for. As far as things to do, there is NOTHING no joke absolutely nothing guess this explains why our teens are always drinking and breaking stuff.... Our crime rate is not a 3 or 4 that is a flat out bold faced lie!! Our crime rate is very very high. Indians and mexicans have flooded our town over the past few years, half the mexicans are not legal and our law enforcement

21 Years of growing up here - 6/21/2012
You see thousands of reviews all over the place about how Alliance is awful, yet none of them give you details as to the reasons behind it beyond the duplicates of "schools suck, nothing to do, poor job selection." Allow me to give you the perspective of someone who has grown calm and isn't frustrated. However, this does not mean I enjoy the place.
Alliance, Ne is a small town with a population of around 9,000. The community is rather sheltered around here and doesn't have a great grasp of the outside world due to its distance from any major area. If you are looking for a quiet place to live with a few friends and family, it isn't really a bad place to be provided that you do not mind taking a trip if you feel that you need to get a bit more excitement. As a young man, I can say personally that I wish that the excitement was a bit closer. However, we do have an impressive array of excellent restaurants, I would recommend the Homestead Diner located on Flack or Ayo Grill

Crime, Cost of living, and some other facts - 1/13/2011
I honestly can not wait to get out of this town.. I grew up in a much larger area and this was complete culture shock for me when I first moved here. Pros for the town are rent is very low. For a two bedroom decent appartment it's about $400 pr month. If your a regular church goer we have TONS of churches to chose from. Yeah i can't think of anymore pros off the top of my head.... CONS - The city of Alliance has very very poor money managment skills. The schools have TERRIBLE money management skills, they would much rather buy new bleachers vs paying to replace books that are well over 10 years old. The rent may be low but our tax rate is really high it's 7.5% sales tax here on everything BUT groceries. People in this town are rude. New businesses can't seem to keep their doors open for longer then 6 months. Our streets are TERRIBLE!!!! Had to replace very expensive parts in the front end suspention of my car because of pot holes that are un avoidable. To buy a decent house here plan

Alliance all around is a poor choice to live. - 8/10/2010
I'll make this as simple as i can. My fiance and i are looking to get out of this town ASAP because we are so miserable here. Pros, we have nice parks, and there's a couple lakes around the area. Cons - To tag a car that you may have just bought it's in your best interest to add that cost into your car loan. I bought a car for 12,000 and it cost me almost a grand to tag it. We have two grocery stores here and they're both over priced on EVERYTHING! We have no shopping here, to shop you have to drive an hour to scottsbluff or longer to rapid city or denver. I graduated from here not long ago and i must say our school system is TERRIBLE. Our high school has a very high drop out rate. We graduated with less then 50% of our class that walked in the doors our freshman year. People here are so rude and nasty and nosey! If you are moving here and don't know anybody, count on making very few friends. The only thing people have to do here is go to the bar. Late at night there's drunks walking

A good place to live! - 4/9/2009
Alliance is a great place to live if you understand what it won't be. It is not the big city. Don't expect fancy restaurants, plays, concerts, or lots of nightlife. It is a small rural town with great parks, a 5 plex movie theater, a low cost of living -- average 24% below national averages, decent jobs, and friendly people.
It doesn't have a lot of shopping but you can find most things in town you are looking for -- just not at the big boxes you are used to in the major cities. It is an easy place to walk and to commute. NO traffic. Great churches and nearby to many things including all types of outdoor

Quiet - 3/20/2007
Alliance might be a good place if you don't like to eat out or don't mind medicore restaurants. Recreation is non existant unless you plan to drive, and that will be about 2-3 hours away. Cost of living is higher because of the railroad paying good wages. But not everyone can become a railroader. No shopping!@!!! Teenagers have nothing to do and alcohalism is higher here than anywhere else in
