The reason the Cost of living is so low!
The cost of living here looks so low becasuse of the one major issue that effects the town, the lack of shopping! If you need to look resonablly presentable for work, i.e. you can't look like a teenager, are larger than a size 10, or don't work in manufacturing. You have to either order and have it shipped or drive a minimum of an hour to go and buy something. With gas prives staying over $3 a gallon currently that is a major issue and probably not figured into the cost of living. The only option for buying clothing locally are Maurice's and WalMart.
