Alien culture is big in Roswell

4/6/2008
If you are interested in space aliens, Roswell is a decent place to visit. They've got a UFO museum, a lot of alien statues, and a local obsession with aliens (for instance, they have an "Aliens Welcome" sign on the Arby's restaurant). As a place to live, Roswell is a mixed bag. The climate is great, the school system is good, and cost of living is extremely low for the region, but crime is high and there is a huge problem with gangs and drugs. But with a 21% decrease in violent crime from 2005 to 2006, it looks like police are working hard at eliminating the problem. Also, while Roswell is by no means a boomtown, it has attracted people from larger cities seeking an extremely low cost of living and a slow-paced lifestyle.
