What are the best and worst things about the town you live in (not the big city 30 miles away)?
Example: the best thing about Orangeville is that you can get away with not mowing your lawn for a month. the worst thing about Orangeville is it's the minger capital of the world.
Here's mine for Holland MI. Best-Hope college co-eds running by my house in the spring and fall. Worst-the smell of dead fish in Macatawa.

Holland Mi Best: ummmmmmm...........beach is....pretty. Worst: it's Holland, Mi. Granted we have a week long festival praising the Tulip that all the old Dutch people from all around visit and drive slow as hell, but there are some other good things too. Like New Holland Brewery! |

Not to be an Ahole, but I'm from Kentwood, and the only good thing I can think of is that I'm only about 7 miles away from downtown.
Nothing bad really though.

The students from various areas of the country that I've talked with say its something you just have to experience. There is no way to capture it. I grew up with it, so it seems normal to me. |

Best of Kentwood: The rail trail Worst of Kentwood (besides it being Kentwood): The ticket friendly cops [sarcasm] I enjoy dodging bullets while trying to get to my apartment on the SE side. [/url] I can't think of anything being "best" about living in that neck of the woods. So glad we'll be moving out sometime within the year. |

Donelson, TN
Pro: 15 minutes max to anywhere I want to go
Con: Apparently, when the houses were built in the 1950's, all of the original owners signed a contract that stated they would not leave until they died, and then they'd sell their homes to 19 Mexican drywallers who share a 3 bedroom house and 2 Sentras.

There is also the art and history here too.
Worst: Crime, Retarded mayor, it is illegal to kill stupid people.
