that town is a dumb now
the quality of people moving to and living there in town has gone down hill

As one of the "people moving to" the area from Chicago, I find your comments offensive, to say the least. I've been in LaSalle County for 7 years and haven't looked back since. This is an area rich in history, making it an excellent area to not only learn a great deal about the settlement of the Illinois Valley, but also a tremendous place to detect. Ottawa, in particular, is a beautiful small town with much to offer with its charming downtown, its gorgeous setting on both the IL and Fox Rivers, and cultural events year round. Like any town, it's not immune to problems, but it strives to continue conquering them. It's a shame you have such a narrow and ignorant view.
