Review of Rapid City, South Dakota


Great city but needs work
Star Rating - 8/15/2006
I moved to Rapid City in 08/1999 and currently live here. This city is a very beautiful city to live in with a neat mountain that separates the town. I do admit parts of the town are not the best looking but a majority of the city is really beautiful. Some of the lights in town are not very efficent and the there are major roads that need fixing. Available jobs in Rapid City I think are adequate and shopping is really good. The beautiful Black Hills with Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Custer, Deadwood, Spearfish are all beautiful and can be all done in a day. There is many things to do in the hills that you will never get tired of doing like many hiking trails, museums, and parks. The city can be very slow at getting things done but the city is contantly improving. The city also has some great parks and Storybook Island a great park for chilren that is free. There is plenty of medical centers and doctors.
