Nice area to visit, has its issues when you live here User Rating 2 rating By Anonymous ( Nov 09, 2018) I grew up here. The area itself is very beautiful, and the town itself is very peaceful and is very resort-like. However, it's a very cliquey town, where most people are related to maybe five or six families, and if you aren't part of that, you're never really welcomed. To be ...Read More frank, it's very snobby. However, it is a very nice place with a high standard of living and quality public services like education and such. I would caution, however, that the schools concentrate the negative aspects of the town. Its snobbishness, its cliquey tendencies, are magnified, so if you have kids, I would not advise putting them through the public school system. Also, if you're moving from the south, you likely won't fit in here well at all, and the winters will be very tough for you.All being told, it's a nice place, but the people aren't as nice. Tread lightly here. Read Less
