South Bend is a nice place to raise a family. The pace is slower than larger towns...but within a 3-4 hours drive in any direction you have a choice of many large cities (Chicago, Detroit, Indianapolis, Grand Rapids.) It's nice to have those cities available within a few hours drive and yet be able to leave all those people and ALL that traffic.

  • I really enjoyed all the crack, violence, outdoor public beatings and all-around savage behavior on the Near Northwest side from 1980 until early 2001 myself. What color is the sky in your world?
