Review of Fayetteville, Arkansas


A really nice place...
Star Rating - 11/3/2007
I don't live there and I am fairly new to Arkansas...but if I wanted to live in AR for the rest of my life I would live in Fayetteville. It is a really nice town. From what I have seen very clean, pretty (hills and what not). There are a lot of cultured people there but there are also hicks! Hicks are everywhere people...you cannot get away from them! Some ppl are close to family some are not! What is the big deal?

All in all it is a really pretty place, nice university, nice shops, nice down town area, they recycle, variation of reliagion (did not see churches on every corner which is nice) etc.....

I might just move there...

LeavingARASAP posts "I dont live there (Fayetteville)" and "I am .. new to Arkansas". That being the case it makes one wonder how he/she believes he/she is qualified to express views about what life is like in Fayettteville. "Hicks .. close to family ... What is the big deal?" Finally he asks a question. Well, assuming you have no relatives in or near there, the fact that they are hicks and that their social lives away from work and church meetings revolve almost entirely around their relatives means that you are not eligible to hang out with them in their free time because you are not related to them - get it? Maybe I should pick a place where I have never lived and express views about what life is like there. Let's see - Eckmondwike, England - never lived there - it would be a better place to live than Winnepeg, Manitoba, where I have also never lived. I suppose my opinions about those places must be of great value - right?
