Community Benefits:
Imagine a town in the foothills of a snow-capped peak, surrounded by mountains. In this town are a state university; a major theatre company, joined by other smaller theatres; art galleries; a museum and fine restaurants. Now imagine the people. From lifelong residents, solidly rooted in small-town living, to former metropolitan area residents, looking for a more relaxed pace and a better quality of life, these same people are the fabric of a living quit. Ashland. Our town. It's a small town of great diversity, whose residents differ greatly in their lifestyles and their goals, but who share a set of core values' the importance of community, appreciation of beautiful country and good weather, and an understanding that quality of life counts as much as ambition. Where giving, not getting, is a value. Ashlanders don't talk much about "quality time" because it's all quality time. It's a town where people make a difference. Residents know what the current community issues are and everyone has an opinion. Citizens' committees help guide city government, and City Council meetings are open to the public and broadcast live on a local cable channel. It's rare to walk downtown and not see someone you know. People feel they live here. Ashland is a unique blend of small-town values and a simpler way of life, a wide range of cultural opportunities usually found only in cities, and the physical beauty of the Rogue Valley. It's a special place to live/ask anyone who lives here.
