Robbie Harris reports About a decade ago people in and around the town of Floyd got together and made a commitment to preserve and nurture its natural assets; rural living, that quirky charm in a place that is still wild and affordable, the kind of place that more people are now looking for. That’s why Hari Berzins and her family decided to move to the mountain town a couple of years ago. “We’d been researching many places across the country, where we wanted to move and raise our kids. And also where we could buy land and live out our plan for building a mortgage free homestead where we could afford to buy three acres of land that we did buy for cash. So it was kind of a combination of climate culture and affordability."
