Beautiful venue and nice if you like small towns. Has small mall-secondary market so the Macy's, Sears, etc. won't carry full inventory. About 1 1/2 hr. drive to Houston, 2 hrs. to Austin, 2 hrs. to San Marcos discount malls, 3 hrs. from San Antone. For that reason, is good central location.
The bad? It's a college town and great for college kids and families. Not a good place for single working professionals. Friendly but "closed" community re making new friends unless you're a college kid. You have to drive for decent shopping a restaurants other than the usual chains--Denny's, Red Lobster, Cheddars, Wings n More, etc. All the chains that college kids like with good happy hours.
