Review of Florence Ore,


Great Place to Live
Star Rating - 11/8/2009
This is a great little town. My parents have lived here since 1971, and they wouldnt live anywhere else. I want to retire there someday. The town is very friendly. People actually talk to you there. The town remindes me of Santa Barbara, very clean and new looking. There was only about 2,000 people in 1971, and now the town has over 10,000. With that many people moving there, it must tell you something. Only thing is there is a lot of rain which is what makes it beautiful. A wonderful school system for children and a nice place to raise children. I say yes its a go. Thumbs up here.
