With a population of 10,358, Galion is a small town. Crime rate is something to consider -Galion sits at 186.0 per 100K. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Property taxes are high but you get good services.
Pros:

Cons:
- Traffic can be terrible
- Sprawl everywhere
