why not to move here

If you are used to living in bigger cities this is not the place to move. Coming from the Tampa area, I feel like I have taken a trip in a time machine. I thought smaller cities would welcome you and make you feel comfortable. This place is nothing like that. As far as specifics, when dealing with getting water turned on or our garbage collected be prepared to deal with people that think you are an annoyance just for asking for your city services. If you are used to recycling you are going to have to drive your recyclables to the landfill, they don't have curbside pickup. The cops here are everywhere, I have seen more cops here then in Tampa. Which I don't understand, there doesn't seem to be much crime here other then people speeding. If you have children, there is nothing for them to do. I can't even find a playground close to me for my child to play in and I live pretty close to downtown Dallas. In short, if you like to recycle, do things with your children, or like good customer service don't move here.
