I Absolutely HATE This Small Country Town -
10/29/2011I just moved here and I absolutely hate this town! They only have 3 main grocery stores: Publix, Winn-Dixie, and Walmart. Publix and Winn-Dixie are some of the most overpriced grocery stores I've seen. Being in Florida for the first time in my life, I thought it would be awesome with palm trees and whatnots, NOPE!! Looks just like Alabama up the road. I have meet quite a few nice people, but some of the rednecks kind of outweigh the niceness of some of the people I have meet. It is not a culturally diverse place and they only have 1 high school in this town. I have noticed an abundance of Baptist churches here, and I am UMC and only found 1 in another town near by. This is a very "hilly" town and you would need a good truck or SUV to really make it. The post office here is a joke. They are rude and inconsiderate. It's a wonder where the term "going postal" came from, is from people like this. The climate is fine and to be expected. I think you would enjoy this town most if you are: Baptist, retiring, a home body, your skin tone is lighter than Michael Jackson, at the time of death or enjoy the small country/rural life. Downtown looks rather run down and old. It is really small, and if you blink you would miss it. I've been downtown nearly everyday and never realized that is what was considered downtown. Moving from the 3rd largest city in the U.S.; makes this place looks like a speck on the map.
