I will agree with the “every town has its problems” point. I don’t either live there, though much of my family does, and I HAVE condsidered moving there. The big catch? The in-your-face attitude. Simpler lifestyle? sure. But EVERYTHING you do is noted, and held against you. I couldn’t deal with the accountability. My housing and tuition cost way more (though my taxes are lower), but I wouldn’t trade my low-key mixed yeshiva community for that.
