Sault Ste. Marie, MI
good small town -
12/12/2006Born and raised in Sault Ste. Marie (Soo). Never felt scared to walk down a street after dark. As a child most people still left their doors unlocked, car windows down, most could happen was a local drunk went into the wrong house! Things alittle different now, but still a good place to raise a family. I moved away from the Soo a few years ago. Not enough work, and people know everything about you. So here I am in a huge metro city. Yep good jobs great pay, compaired to the Soo but the cost of living is crazy. A couple could still buy a home in the Soo for a nice price. Ends up the big city sucks. The reasons one leaves the Soo is the same reason one ends up missing it, totally crazy! No place like the u.p. and once a yooper always a yooper! So if you got a good paying job that you can work year round the Soo is great!

not the greatest place -
12/12/2006I moved to Phoenix 2 years ago. We came from a very small town in Michigan. The ONLY reason we came here is because my son is handicap, the cold weather in Michigan was getting to hard for him. We have found GREAT doctors here. But I would say thats all. This place sucks! The hot weather, well we got use to that and it has been great for my son. People here are so rude. The streets are crazy, people cutting you off, yelling at you, road rage!!! The air sucks. If you are white be ready to get dirty looks and have people say rude things to you the first time you walk into a Food City store. I surely don't fell safe here. I say if you don't have to be here don't!!!
