Area Residence and Business Owners,

What can you tell people about the positives of your community. What does your city and surrounding communities have to offer over other similar areas: up and beyond the seasonal entertainment. Lets hear why you love this area...

A different approach looking for your reasons to why anyone would choose to move either family or business to your region and area.

What is sooooo good to offer any advantage if any???

What do you have to offer the community? What is sooooooo good about having you live in the area?

Ask not what your city, county, region or state can do for you; ask what you can do for your city, county, region or state.

Well sure is nice to have the reply, but no need to sound offended, as the message is to stimulate you to give your positive input to your area.
I do not live in the area, but interested; so asking your local area residence for their true honest input to the areas interest, things to do, housing, business, etc. What are the advantages the area has to offer.
Thank you for your response just the same. Have A Great Day!

It's still enough wilderness to not have to see another human being if you don't want to (at least at my house). There are minimal building codes (Stone County), and the cost of living is fairly low (if you live frugally).

Those are the high points for me, anyway. YMMV

Why do people regard minimal building codes as being a great thing ?

Yes, love the idea of the wilderness and its beautiful scenery in which you have (i am jealous). Sounds like you really are happy with your area, but being a little closer to the city, people, and schools is probably more appropriate for my family and I. A happy medium I suppose...

Thank you very much for your valuable input as it is highly appreciated.

Have A Great Day!!!

Ha! Good point, OB.

Well, I cannot speak for anyone else, but for me it allows me the freedom to build WHAT I want WHEN I want. For instance, we are planning to build a "bum shack" down by our creek to camp in. If we had building codes here, I would be required to have a permit and have it "inspected" before we could use it. Now before you jump on the "building codes protect people" bandwagon, I can assure you that I am NOT going to try to sell my bum shack as a three bedroom ranch house with a view! So I don't think that people need to be protected with building codes. LOL
