The biggest benefit I can think of is the people of Big Falls. Everyone is so kind and willing to help each other out. Everyone is a friend and I have never seen crime here. I don't have a fear of leaving the kids at home while I run to town. I don't worry about anyone vandalizing or stealing from me. If the world could be like Big Falls we would all be at peace. Lots of trees means fresh air. Lots of good oxygen in the air and my favorite time is in the winter walking a trail in the pines and it feels like Christmas all the time with the smell of the pines. Snowmobile trails go for miles. Red Lake walleye fishing is 54 miles away. Lake of the woods 90 miles away. If you live in a bigger city you will enjoy the peace and quiet of a small town. The stars at night are breath taking.
The local bar is quiet and unique. The bar sells food, so 4 miles to get a burger and beer. The town has a store, hardware store, bar, post office, community center, Clinic, fire station. Not bad for a town of 200 people.
