Perkins
6.5
High score (8-10)
Perkins County has no warm-category case — Grant (the county seat) has about 1,200 people and the county is high plains irrigation agriculture.
Mid score (6-8) · Your profile
Grant sits on the old Lincoln Highway (US-30) with some legacy infrastructure from the highway's heyday, though I-80 to the south pulled traffic away. The irrigation agriculture here supports real agricultural wealth. An outsider with agricultural ties finds a functional rural base.
Lower score (below 6)
Grant is a highway town that used to matter and now doesn't — US-30 traffic moved to I-80 and the commercial vitality went with it. An outsider here finds a small agricultural county seat with minimal social infrastructure and a long drive to anything social.
