    The city is very peaceful and best place to study where there is not much distraction and we can focus on our study and if we don’t go out of university. university itself is a city as it has amazing events so much of housing residents so that’s the best thing but outside also Walmart and downtown is so close that we can go by walk also I like nightlife in Florence the clubs are really good and food here is amazing.

    Florence is a small town with almost every thing you’ll need in one place, the community loves the school so much and that makes it feel safe and welcoming. The UNA police department also are always readily available for help in night transportation and night security. Most shops also close as late as 11pm or 12. Good things is that you can always walk to downtown from school.

    I feel here safe and welcome. There is absolutely no public transport here. It is small town so there isn't much choice if it comes to entertainment and nightlife.
