Review of Quincy, Illinois


Quincy life as a youth
Star Rating - 3/31/2010
Being very young in Quincy was pretty easy. Being a teenager on the other hand was not. There simply isn't enough to do to keep people out of trouble between the ages of 13 - 20. Of course, once you're 21 there are plenty of bars and clubs to get into trouble at. Activities mainly include: seeing movies, sporting events (seasonal), swimming pools (seasonal), the YMCA, and plenty of parks. Parks being the only place to go that doesn't cost money. I suppose that the children of wealthy parents aren't so bad off, but what about those that are not? As far as I'm concerned, Quincy is a place for the rich and the retired. Other than that all you will find is trouble. I'm very glad that I got away from Quincy and hope I never find myself living there again.
