A wonderful place to live
A wonderful place to live if you place importance on conservatism, family values and religiosity. This is definitely a mega-church enclave. Schools are pretty good but the state in general lacks funding for extracurriculars such as art, music and gym. You can't beat the weather as long as you don't need four seasons. Except for 1 month of the year, it is always warm and pleasant. A friendly, nice place to raise a family but beware, this is not the liberal breezy SoCal you might think it is.
