Methamphetamine, poverty/crime and cockroaches/scorpions are rampant in Roswell! The climate is DRY & it’s difficult to grow anything but weeds!  More

Not sure where they got the rents from. Maybe not updated as there is nowhere to rent in Boone. Unless a student and they are paying $1000+ for 1 bedroom/bath shared  More
