Longview...The Best of East Texas
Star Rating - 6/15/2009
I have lived in Longview for a little over 4 years and love it! Longview has a little bit everything; the arts (Operah, Symphany, Museums, Entertainment Series), plus lakes, golf courses, and festivals. The downtown is starting to come alive with restaurants and night life with regular concerts at the Longview Museum of Art.

For families raising kids there are 3 public school districts, youth sports, Children's Theatre, and parks galore.

The natural beauty of the area is amazing with the rolling hills and tall trees. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else!

Is there a horse riding/keeping community there? Boarding facilities? Show barns? Horseback camps?

I've lived in Texas for over 50 years and Longview is one of the good places to be. I've been all over East Texas over those years, and Longview is a favorite of mine. The problem with the whiny ones is that they want to be outside the norm and nobody can tell them anything. My suggestion... move to California where you will fit in. If you are a Texan and an American, Longview is a good place to be. Every place is a choice, and not every place is willing to let people live outside the law or be against things that are basically normal. If you want to be weird, move to Callie land
