What people are saying about Marfa | |
Marfa? Really? I Don\'t Think So. | |
The real estate is WAY overpriced due to the hipsters from NYC and LA that made it a new mecca for trust fund artist types. There are no decent grocery stores (2 with limited expensive selections). The real estate will only get more over priced with the amazon.prime tv series \"I Love Dick\". It is many miles from decent health care or a major airport or a big box store. Go to Ft. Davis or Alpine if you wish to be in the Big Bend area, much less attitude. The best thing about Marfa is the old hardware store which has been in the same family for 3 generations. The public radio station is good too. | |
