Fayetteville is a great place because of the people. People care about this city and love this city, and so they take care of it and protect it.
Its a mixture of what makes any great city great, but mixed in with a lower-midwestern/upper south Bible-belt mentality of abiding by the Golden Rule.
In short, people are nice here. People are also socially conscious.
Mix that with the scenery of the Ozarks, four distinct seasons, and lots of outdoors activities, and there you have it. Its hard to describe, but not if you really think about it.
I lived in Dallas for 5 years. It was okay, if you don't mind feeling completely disconnected from nature. Thats tough on a boy from the Natural State.
Here, you have a slice of big city fun, but all you have to do is drive over a hill and catch a glimpse of the Ozarks rolling out into infinity to remember how beautiful this planet is.
Which reminds me, I've got shite to do. Its 85 degrees and sunny.

I guarantee that Oxford is better than Dallas.

You are just scratcing the surface.
Fayetteville is the place I went to college and had a great time, it's where I forged almost all of my lifelong friendships, it's where I got married, the place all 3 of my kids were born, it's where I can walk the campus and remember those college days I loved so much.
I miss living there.
