WHAT'S GREAT ABOUT FRANKLIN: PARTS 2, 3 and 4

WHAT'S GREAT ABOUT FRANKLIN


This is
a special series featuring, in my view, the Top Ten of what’s best about Franklin, culminating in #1 on July 4.

4) BEAUTY

We have no striking landmarks or breathtaking natural wonders. However, Franklin is a city with clean neighborhoods and streets. People care about how their properties look and manage and care for them appropriately. Franklinites are fine stewards and it shows.


3) OUTSTANDING POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENTS

Time and again we hear reports of their excellent work. And some city officials actually thought about cutting their budgets last year?

We owe these departments our support and gratitude.


2) PEACEFUL

We’re not crime-free, but you get a strong sense of security and safety living here.  That is due, in large part, to the work of our fine police chief and officers. Franklin residents also care deeply, regarding public safety as a top priority.

I wouldn’t advise it, but there are plenty of places in the 53132 zip code where you could leave your doors unlocked. OK, Chief Oliva, stop cringing. But you get my point.


WATCH FOR  #1 SUNDAY.
