Coming from dusty hot, concrete Phoenix I was amazed. Sioux Falls is beautiful, clean, well kept, and green Not much in the way of mountains here, but what it lacks in terrain it makes up for in green.
Clean, diverse variety, and way too much fast food joints Gyms: Clean, a lot of choices Parks: Frisbee golf, soccer fields, volleyball, river bike paths, you name it.. People do Kayak it though I did some running in the winter and it wasn't bad if it wasn't windy. I am getting by with a two wheel drive truck and 2 70lb sand bags in the back.
Apartments: I rented a gorgeous place with a nice view of trees and greenery and close to the Empire Mall area Biking: not much for Mountain Biking Leaders Park has a trail that is not complete, but rideable, and Newton Hills has the best single track I've seen close by so far, but you can definitely get some nice path riding in at all the parks along the river Doctors Sanford and Avera Road Condtions: as nice as can be in such a diverse weather climate Single in Sioux Falls?
If you're a drinker.. So far, my observation is this.. Sioux Falls is a great city to raise a family but not so great for the single and looking for I haven't checked out online dating yet If you think you'll meet someone in the park.. The few people I've managed to engage in conversation were friendly but I got a sense they thought I a single guy by himself was stranger danger. I would call your rendition of Sioux Falls a very accurate depiction of the place.
One nice thing about the city is it's within easy driving distance of great recreation areas for fishing northeast SD, the Missouri River and general water fun Missouri River and the Iowa Great Lakes. If you feel the need for a shot of big time entertainment, the Twin Cities are less than 4 hours away. As anyone that's lived here for more than 4 years can attest, at this time of year we're normally not even close to as "green" as we have been lately.
