A town in the middle of cedar springs and grand rapids full of a diversity of hardcore democrats and republicans. everyone seems to smoke pot and rant about how high they are or where all the time. If you don't play a sport as a kid or teenager in rockford teachers and other people look down on you. Its a place where people try to be perfect..
"hey where do you live?"
"Rockford MI"

A bubble of a town in Michigan, just north of Grand Rapids.
The town is overrun by republicans and super-christians, both of which try to mold you to their idea of perfect.

Rockford is located in the central part of N. Illinois, it is the 3rd largest city in IL., with an est. population of 150,881. Roughly 25% are under 18 yrs, and 30% are 18-24 yrs. If you are between the ages of 25-44 you fall into about 23% of the pop. 45-64 yrs your looking at only about 13.5% of the pop. 35 yrs old is about the average overall age in Rockford, Il. This city is a pretty "cookie cutter" town that from what I feel is like Chicago's brother who is trying to be Chicago. Everytime you turn around people are talking about how they were just in Chicago the other day. Alot of people that I feel don't know who they really are. Manufacturing was huge in the 40's - 70's but has slowed down as the years go on. Job's are hard to find but not impossible. Property taxes are high, most of it goes to the public school system, public schools are rough, I went through them. Schools here are EXTREMLY mixed with different races and EVERYONE classified in one way shape or form. Prostitution, gangs and drugs are very, very big in this town. I am 28 yrs old and was born and raised here. I lived in the city of St. Louis for 3 yrs and it felt the same. Rockford works from sw-w to the east side. The further east / N. east you go, the better off, as far as gangs and outright on the streets drug dealing. Robberies of all kinds happen more in th center - east side. Top 3 nationalities, Mexicans, Blacks and Swedes. Like anything else in life, it's all in what you make of it.

Rockford Illinois is a dumping ground in the center of Northern Illinois for every surrounding community's pedophiles and other sex-offenders. It has also recently made headlines for its corrupt and trigger-happy Police force who generally shoot first and ask questions later especially if you are Black! It is generally accepted by most who visit Rockford that it is a dead end and if you move there the property taxes and cost of living will drain you like a vampire drains the life from a victim and you will be Rockford's slave forever!
