What is a great little safe town to raise a family in the US?|103957

When I ask this, I mean not a huge city, and not a town that has 2 people in it. Also, that has a civilization close by. Thanks!

Athens, GA. Decent sized college town with plenty of culture and family. Atlanta is only 60 miles away if you want to go to a big city for anything. Best place I know.

Here is a link.

You would like my town.
32,000 people.(city limits) Quiet. 20 minutes to a town of more size for shopping and such. 45 minutes to a major city.
one and a half hours to Las Vegas.
Some outlying areas outside city limits that are great to live in. much smaller. I live in one of the out of city limit areas. good elementary school and lots of peace and quiet.

I think my hometown of Prescott,AZ. It has an elevation similar of Denver CO. It is nestled in the largest ponderosa pine tree forests in the world. 3 Pristine lakes are available,1 within the city limits,other 2 are less than 10 minutes away. population is close to 65,000 and growing. There are actual seasons there,snows in the winter,cool in the spring,and warm in the summer. Also known as Arizona_s _Christmas City_. Great places to go within an hours drive include,Sedona,Jerome,and Camp Verde. The grand canyon is 3 hours north,las vegas 5 hours northwest,and the state capitol Phoenix,2 hours southwest.
Some of the best public schools in the state are there as well,always scoring above the state average. There is 2 community colleges there as well,and the crown jewel...Embry Riddle Aeronautical University,THE best flight school in the counrty.
Hope you find this useful,good luck!

Seneca, MO. Nice town of about 2000. Absolutely wonderful schools from pre-school to high school. 20 minutes to Joplin, MO, a town that swells to about 150,000 on the weekends so about anything you could want is there plus a University. Or 90 minutes you can be in Tulsa, OK, about an hour to Springfield, MO, 2-1/2 hours to Kansas City, 2 hours to Branson. 4 Seasons. Friendly people. Never had a tornado. Get a great house for a little $. Low cost of living. We love it and so do our kids!

Jacksonville, Oregon. It_s a historic town in Southern Oregon, with a population of about 2,000. It_s close to the Rogue River, the town of Ashland which has a Shakespeare Festival, city of Medford (pop. 70,000), with things to do like rafting, skiing, biking, hiking, tourism, concerts (Britt Gardens is a nationally-famous outdoor concert hall where we_ve had people like Nickel Creek, the Beach Boys, and Heuey Lewis and the News play before), and a lot more. Check it out - it_s safe, has a lot of things to do, and people are friendly. It_s an interesting place to live.

I went to elementary school in both Jonesbouro AR and Athens OH; both great college towns. Oooo... good times
