Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted August 3, 2023 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted August 3, 2023 (edited) 1,000's of small towns like those in the US. Neat article but its basically drawn out of a hat. I have to laugh at #99 Fairfield, Iowa. Known statewide as a complete shithole. Most Iowa rankings put in the top 10 worst places to live. When I was 13 I played in the 13-15 yo Babe Ruth Iowa state baseball tournament. We were housed with families from the community. We were all warned multiple times to stay completely away from the Maharishi "students." Why it’s a great small town: Fairfield was built to honor and follow the teachings of Indian guru Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. People arrive in town to practice the Transcendental Meditation technique he developed and find that much of the town was built following the architectural principles of the Maharishi. All the feel-goodness in this town carries over. There are 150 nonprofits and 400 start-up companies here, and the town is attempting to become sustainable in support of the environment. Fun fact: Transcendental Meditation is practiced at the Maharishi University of Management. Edited August 3, 2023 by Highmark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 I was told on FS that a small town has a population under 300 so this study is irrelevant. Sorry but FS members write the rules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Just went through warroad MN. It’s basically on the border. Really nice, clean, modern town. It’s a couple miles to the border and the Canadian side of the crossing is just a dump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
