I currently live in Jasper and my opinion is very different from the one you quoted. Yes crime is very low and the schools are decent (for Indiana). But the people of Jasper are very arrogant and rude. When I first moved here and had out of state plates on my car I would literally get sneered at. Even the garbage men pull attitudes with you. They think they are the second coming. A fried of my wife used to live in Jasper when she was in high school and she even commented that most of the students snubbed her because she was from out of town. Inbreeding is alive and well here in Jasper. If you have the option I would suggest Bloomington or Evansville. I have no idea what my landlord is talking about when she said Jasper was on the top ten list of best small towns in the US. They obviously didn't talk to the people.
