Quincy, Illinois is a great place to live and raise a family. It is a beautiful city. It has great older homes and an abundance of large beautiful trees. It is safe and low in violent crimes. Everything you could want to do is a 2 & 1/2 hour drive to St.Louis. It is a relaxing place to be. If you want Chicago or a big city, then you do not want to live in Quincy. Quincy has great art, community theatre and of course the great Mississippi River. The parks are fantastic. People in Quincy are nice. The schools,public and private, are excellant. They prepared me and my siblings to succeed in graduate school and our careers. The cost of living is very low. Housing is reasonable. Sports and fun activities for kids are excellant. I lived there 22 years. I have lived 54 years and in 4 states. I have travelled extensively. I have never seen a city so beautiful, freindly or safe. I still have family there and visit as often as possible.
