Review of Murphysboro, Illinois


We Love It Here
Star Rating - 1/16/2007
We moved to Murphysboro two years ago from Houston and love it here. The area is beautiful and full of recreational amenities. Cost of living is cheap, people are friendly and there are four seasons (but summers and winters are relatively mild.) Add the proximity to Carbondale and Southern Illinois University with all of its cultural amenities, we thought it was the best of both world's (urban and rural.)
