Our Take
Sheridan is a solid family town with great schools and plenty of outdoor space, but it’s very car‑dependent and the cost of living is a bit high for the average income. If you’re looking for a quiet place to raise kids, it’s worth a visit, but if you need public transit or a vibrant nightlife, you’ll be disappointed.
