Review of Quincy, Illinois


A good place to live.
Star Rating - 1/7/2007
I have lived here for over 25 years, low cost of living, no bad traffic problems, good business climate, low crime, climate is cold in winter, but bearable, summers are hot, but you do get breaks from the heat. An old time feeling that first attracted me away from Chicago area. Population is increasing, people coming in slowly though (like the drivers) lots of retirees. Pretty boring night life, limited selection of restaurants. Seems like Quincy has what a lot of people are looking for that have been subjected to the rat race of larger cities. If this is what you are looking for, then this is your Utopia!
