Grocery stores in Booneville -recommendations?

OK so I've been here for 2 years and Homes are going for about $91,800 on average. The median home value here is around $91,800, which is actually reasonable. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Am I overthinking this? Any help is appreciated. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem better than expected.

I've been here 11 years and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The thing nobody mentions is food scene. It's affordable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the dating scene is legit. And if you're into golfing, this place is excellent.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Fairview side vs the South side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Feel free to reach out with questions..

Hot take but it's been a really good experience overall. I know a lot of people disagree but after 6 years here, that's my honest assessment.

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.

If you value cost of living, you'll love it. The cost of living is genuinely excellent and I've found it exceeded my expectations. My neighborhood (Fairview) is affordable and I feel safe walking around at night.

But if you're coming from Chicago, be prepared for the culture shock. cultural scene is completely different here. And Urban sprawl is real.

My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are surprisingly good, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.
