Look, if you're thinking of moving to this place, let me give you a reality check. Duncans may have once crowned a beauty queen, but the harsh truth is that it's a former senator's hometown, not exactly a bustling metropolis. And that whole 'former' bit? It should tell you something about the local political scene.

The data I have here is sparse, but it's clear this isn't a thriving, dynamic community. Bureaucracy seems to be a persistent headache, and the safety situation is anyone's guess. I'd keep looking if I were you - Duncans doesn't sound like the kind of place that's going to roll out the red carpet for expats.

In short, this sleepy little town is probably best left to the former politicians and beauty queens. Unless you're looking to retire in a quiet backwater, I'd suggest casting your net elsewhere.
