Housing Notes
Homes and property
Housing is mostly modest single-family homes in town, with acreage properties on the edges. Out there, private wells and septic systems are the norm, so plan inspections and upkeep around that from the start.

Before You Sign
Utilities to confirm
In-town addresses usually get municipal water, but sewer versus septic varies from parcel to parcel. For a property you’re serious about, ask about both at the city and the county before you write an offer.
When it's time to set up accounts, the Relocation Utility Hub gathers utility and county office links in one place.
Civic Life
