re: Nicest small town in your home state.

it really depends on what folks consider nice.

Some want a larger town with hotels, bar scene... others want small communities that are pristine and full of natural beauty.

I take the latter. Beautiful rivers, lakes, creeks with great fishing, hunting, exploring, hiking etc. Bed and breakfast inns, and folk music galore. Trout, small mouth bass, and good down home cooking.

Heber, Mt. View, Mountain Home, over Hot Springs imho.
