Yeah, the slower pace is a bitch to adjust to but once you do you'll wonder why anyone would want to live any other way. LOL.

There is no such thing as "fast" food down here.

Nice... something off on that list though. Newburgh NY isn't on there. One of the worst spots in the country for murder, rape, gangs and drugs....

Youngstown, OH was left off too and would likely be an easy choice for #1 lol

Nah compared to Newburgh, Youngstown is paradise lol. The only thing criminal about Ohio is how boring it is lol, lived there for 2 months. Obviously in the wrong area.

Pretty comparable. Youngstown must be a larger city. Violent crimes are ridiculous in Youngstown. Newburgh seems to be no joke, especially recently. Glad I don't live in either lol

Newburgh

Youngstown

Wow didn't realize youngstown was that bad. Drove through there and didn't seem terrible. Also yeah Newburgh is small. The town of newburgh is fine. The city is another story though.

It's crazy man. Going through the Youngstown/Warren area is NOT the place you want to be lol. There are nice areas surrounding Youngstown but it's a horrible place, especially just outside of YSU campus.

It's official though guys! Background check has passed and it's time to find a place! I'm looking at "Hampton Village" in Rocky Mount as I was referred there by my recruiter. Seems like a nice place and rent is certainly affordable. Hoping someone can check it out or let me know what they think about it. Probably going to apply this weekend.

Well, get on down here and let's get a picture taken to replace that snowy one, makes me cold just looking at it.

And now it looks like an appropriate time to get that member number!
