Not many reasons to stay . . .

1/3/2008
We are a young family and moved here 1 year ago from further North. Michigan has really gone down hill economically as a whole, and that is evident in Oxford. On the positive side, the school system seems outstanding. Okay, on to the negatives. . . unless you have 2 well educated individuals in your household, don't bother. Most everyone lives in subdivisions with costly homes. The homes in town have character, but many are run down. I can't find a job, even though I have a degree. Our daughter's bicycle was stolen over holiday break, and we just got a foot of snow. We're running out of reasons to remain in Michigan. In the summer, you can't beat the Lakes, but the winters are long and the state in in recession.
