Is it a place that has enough to do? It is a school town so it would be empty for the Thanksgiving season?
We don’t do anything. Read, hike, go to church, etc. Small town America in the Appalachian hills. No worries, no crime, no hurry.
Try Ocracoke Island in NC. Sometimes you have to do nothing to do something. $60 a night in the motel.
