McCook
7.0
High score (8-10)
McCook County is in the Sioux Falls commuter radius but doesn't benefit from it in terms of local social life — Salem has around 1,300 people and the county is fundamentally agricultural. Everything meaningful happens in Sioux Falls, and living here means accepting that.
Mid score (6-8) · Your profile

Lower score (below 6)
McCook County has under 6,000 residents and no independent social infrastructure. Salem is a small farm town that primarily functions as a bedroom community for Sioux Falls commuters.
