There is a strong community atmosphere especially if you are a lover of sports as there are many local football games, minor league baseball games, and NAHL hockey leagues to both attend and participate in. Outside of athletics the area enjoys outdoor and cultural recreation with things like the I-20 wildlife preserve, the Sibley Nature Center, and the Wagner Noel Performing Arts Center.
