Searcy is a Great Place to Live
Approximately two years ago I moved back to Searcy. I lived here for 11 years previously. After living in the Kansas City metropolitan area for 23 years, I was concerned about moving back to a city of approximately 20,000. It has been a very good experience. Searcy has a lot of growth going on now. There are new stores and restaurants going up regularly. Main Street has a beautification plan that is going strong. The campus of Harding University is now undergoing a facelift as well. There are homes in virually every price category that are available. The schools are excellent as are the healthcare facilities. The slower pace has been a difficult adjustment, at times, but the slower pace of life is less stressful. I have found people very friendly, helpful and kind. A total stranger once gave me a ride when I knocked on her door to ask to use her telephone to call for a locksmith. (I had locked my keys and phone in my car.) Now, that is what I call a great neighnorhood!
