Beautiful area if you like rustic and evolving. Unfortunately, it suffers from the same things that North Georgia tends to suffer from. Meth Heads and thieves. They like to break in to places. Especially "all them thar new fancy smancy places them thar city folks are buildin'".
Like Moths to a flame. Check out the crime stats. Anywhere there is economic improvement/housing, there is a disproportionate amount of crime. Usually break-ins, assaults, larceny. They don't tend to kill each other but they will fight when they get duuuurunkkkkk....and don't listen to that "well, that's everywhere"....it may be but the numbers are staggering for such a post card community.
The police need to start cracking heads and down on their relatives and clean the crap up and THEN Jasper would be an awesome place to live. Put the dirt bikes away and "hey ya'll watch this" attitude and you might be fine.
As new money comes in it will continue to flush out the old. Move them to Floyd County where they will fit right in...
