I love living here because…
Fonda is a community where everyone pulls together to make it enjoyable for everyone. You walk down the street and everyone waves and says hello. The police, fire, and ambulance are full of people who care about the community and put in as much effort as possible to keep Fonda a safe town. The school district prides itself on its teaching and coaching abilities to make every student reach their potential. Those are the reasons I love Fonda.
