Review of Lafayette, Indiana


Move to Lafayette
Star Rating - 8/7/2007
Having lived here near Lafayette for a long time, I can tell you without prejudice, that this is a place to be. Would I live in the Lafayette area if my husbands job wasn't here and he has been with his company for over 30 years? If you are lawyer, come to Lafayette and rub shoulders with a lawyer on every street corner, poised to sue but not to go to court. If you are not too ambitious and don't mind eternal poverty, go to Lafayette, they are fat and need plenty of cooks. The police are first class and never miss a hostage. If you are a hard working, intelligent person, stay the away, we have a job deficiency in that area. Taxes are not low. We have 3 nice big Wall Marts, so there is no shortage of low paying jobs and cheep products from China. Don't worry that the products might kill you. And traffic on US 52 is nice and busy(watch out for cars with spinners on the wheels.) Once upon a time, Lafayette had a downtown, with department stores with escalators, 3 movie theatres, 5 and dimes, specialty shops, and plenty of parking. We destroyed all that nasty stuff. Then, there was K-Mart and then a big mall, then Wall Mart. Lafayette has an ordinance that does not allow us to discriminate against sexual preference. If your preference is Tuesday night, its OK!
