This is a retired town 2 rating By southerngal ( Jan 18, 2015) This is a retired town. Mostly elderly and single families live here. There are a few places to see around here. The cost of living is inexpensive. You hear about crime in a few spots that have frequent occurrences. The schools here are okay. Employment in West Point is almost no ...Read More n-existant. Shops come and go from time to time. A lot of old buildings and land, good opportunity if you can find a way to make it suitable for others. Yokohama is opening up shop here and a few hotels are coming to town. A great community because everyone knows everyone. It's good to be close with people here. It's normally humid here. Read Less
