universities 3. Lincoln is home to the Nebraska State Fair 4. Lincoln has an
excellent K-12 school system 5. Lincoln has a # of parks. 6. the people in
Lincoln are very nice 7. the crime rate is fairly low for a metro area.
8. nice city to raise a family in 9. if you are a Cornhuskers fan, you will
be in your element in Lincoln, the fans are very diehard and loyal to the
Nebraska Cornhuskers. 10. Jazz in June and Movies on the Green are nice
things offered in summer.
Lincoln's negatives:
1. the job market leaves a lot to be desired 2. many jobs do not pay well
compared to other areas 3. the city has a number of buildings that look as
though they are ran down 4. the property taxes are very high 5. If you are
not a Nebraska football fan you will feel like an outsider. 6. Lincoln is
a college town so pick wisely the area of town you want to live unless you
enjoy listening to college kids partying. 7. Lincoln like many metro areas as
a homeless problem.
