Love Afton and Star Valley!!!!! - 8/18/2017
Yes, we moved from a crowded, crime ridden area and found paradise. Not to have to look around when returning to parked car. Not to be afraid walking anywhere. Not to fear robberies and break ins, etc... The skies are blue ( imagine that) and spectacular scenery from everywhere. Yes it snowed alot in 2016, but the snow is light and dry unlike Sierra "cement" out west. Farm fresh food, Fabulous fish market and restaurant. A lovely way of life.

Buyer Beware!! - 3/28/2016
I've lived in the Afton area of Star Valley since 1996. I have a nice house that I purchased in a nice subdivision while prices were reasonable. Our house and property prices have gone through the roof over the last couple of years due to an influx in the housing market from Jackson, WY. Many who live in Afton commute 70+ miles to Jackson to earn a decent wage. Wages in Afton do not match what the home costs are. The town is not a bad size with lots of restaurants, a bowling alley/movie theater, large grocery store, 3 bars, hotels, etc. BUT, there is nothing to do for kids on a regular basis. No camps, activities, etc. There is REALLY nothing to do for teenagers who aren't religious or family oriented. Many teenagers drink, party, etc. I KNOW this because I grew up here as a teenager. The closest town with a Walmart and mall is 2 hours away!! The bowling alley and movies get old and expensive when you are looking at that being the only under-aged entertainment here. Last names
