Congratulations!!!!! My parents are close to there. They only moved last year, though. If no one else can offer you help, email me and I will put you in contact with them if it will help.

Hi We are about two hours south in the Arkansas Ozarks. We make it to Springfield a couple times a year when we need to shop for things not available here. It is a beautiful place! Good Luck, it sure will be a change from the Silly Valley! Kim

Welcome to Mo. I'm 50 miles fromyour new home. Out here in the sticks with 45 old holstein cows and a bunch of ticks. But wouldn't trade for anything I can think of. You will like it here if you don't expect to make money hand over fist. Don

I just came from vacation and went through Springfield. Missouri is some of the most beautiful farmland in the states.

Good for you!!! I think you will really like it. We live about 2 hours away, near Truman Lakes. We can either go to Kansas City or Springfield when we need to shop for things we cant find around here. It is the same distance either way. Springfield is a nice, clean town. The best to you and your family! Wendy

Our second home is in the Branson, Mo. area--we go through Springfield all the time when we go down to our home there. We have several friends that are teachers in the Springfield area. They love it there. Best wishes! Sonda in Ks.

Congratulations! I think you'll like it there. My parents vacationed in every state and visited 17 countries (they have a son that works for the airlines) and even after seeing the world they always said that they would choose the Springfield area to live.
