A southern love for Jasper, AL! 3.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 28, 2018) I’ve been living in Jasper, FL for a few years now. This small town is very southern in nature. There are a few great schools and churches nearby. Everyone is friendly and will to give a helping hand. A lot of residents have dogs therefore, we currently have a great, new dog pa ...Read More rk! Traveling downtown has an amazing atmosphere to it. Downtown can really transfer your mood.

Majority of the neighborhoods are very pleasant. For there to be schools close by there is not a lot of traffic, which is a good thing to consider when you have a traditional job. The education within the schools is very good. So those that are looking to start a family or have little ones that are looking forward to the school year will enjoy the primary school system here. Not to mention that we love football season around here.

The best areas in Jasper are the Jasper Mall and along Hwy 78 for food and more shopping areas. There is not much of a nightlife for adults but there is a new bar and restaurant that has opened up called Milo’s which is fabulous. There are more hangout spots for teens than there are for adults or seniors. Read Less
