OK, 100 Best places to live in the US was the title that caught my eye at yahoo news this morning. You can go to CNN's website for the complete listing: http://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/bplive/2007/states/TX.html
These were on the top 100 from the State of Texas:
My SIL, Jennifer lives in Keller, however I have never been there. I do love Grapevine Mills mall but unless I was planning on moving back to the metroplex, there is no way I would move there and deal with all that traffic. It gives me the willies just thinking about it. I did notice that whoever did this survey did not look at towns at population less than 7,500. I guess that is why my community is not on there. I love this small town. It has the cute main street and a beautiful new nature preserve. It has antique stores, coffee shop, old movie theater, bed and breakfasts, good restaurants, and a super walmart for all our needs. I guess I don't ask for much but the price of my home and the amount I pay in taxes every year is well worth having to drive 2 hours to get to shopping and visiting the relatives in DFW area. I guess it all depends on what you find important in life. I love the pineywoods. I love the beach. I like to shop, but I prefer to spend my time reading and relaxing with a good cup of flavored coffee. So when it comes down to it... I am pleased to live where I do. I hope you are too. Have a great Monday. I plan on doing nothing today. :)
