If it was that easy the locals would be buying it up? So ask your self "why are they not"
Limited work locally (ignoring the whole greencard issue for a moment) and only a small town, circa 2100 people. Seems to be predominantly a retirement /holiday place rather than the centre of the universe... not on the interstate either... actually no where near it
Climate is a bit warmer than here, plenty of outdoorsy things to do
looks like a nice enough place though with plenty of community events, I guess a fairly typical example of a small, rural township. Has seven churches though
but that might be due to being squarely in the bible belt
Difficult to get an idea of scale from a UK perspective... it's about an hour and a half from a National Forest, so doesn't quite have the catchment from it but is near enough to be handy... a bit like saying East Dereham is on the edge of the Norfolk Broads...
Looking at google satellite view of the place, alot of it seems to have been zoned for development... possibly 2/3rds of the townships named roads are undeveloped woodland, with half the roads being unmade... one or two houses in a block and the road gets paved from an existing paved road.
