re: Cool, off-the-beaten-path towns within the SEC footprint

I mean, there is literally one bar (if you can call it that) in town.

I think the town has a lot of potential with the downtown/square area. Easily walkable, plenty of old buildings with loft area...it just needs some investment and vision. I am tempted to make changes and make it a hip place, but then I remember that I don't want to die in the same place that my paternal ancestors have for the past 223 years.
