Review of Columbia, Missouri


My Love for Columbia being a Deaf Man
Star Rating - 5/3/2008
Columbia, Missouri is the most underrated city in the USA, yet people don't realize the quality of life in Columbia.
I came to Columbia, Missouri from California, not planning to live there. I was there just to work for a few months building homes. The longer I stayed there, I felt so good about the town and decided to stay longer and found a home. I've been living in Columbia for 7 years and for personal reasons, I moved to Cape Cod, Massachusetts and lived there for 6 years and have regretted leaving Columbia.
I am planning to return to Columbia, Missouri by Fall and buy a home again.
Everything you find in a large city, Columbia has them and there's no need to drive far to the ends of the cities just to shop. Everything about Columbia is very convenient with great health care.
People in Columbia are very nice and friendly, regardless who they are!
I am a Deaf man and they got excellent Deaf Services program anywhere in the USA. They are quick to my needs whenever I need their attention. There are no frustrations.
Columbia is truly a Deaf-friendly town, boasting the only school for the deaf in the state, namely Missouri School for the Deaf. The school is located in Fulton, Missouri, about 25 miles east of Columbia.
Hey Columbia, Boone County, and the great state of Missouri, I'm coming home!
