I went to Schimelpfenig. Frederick Schimelpfenig was an early civic leader in Plano, Texas. Plano is famous for being the hometown of Lance Armstrong. It has at times had the highest instance of teen suicide and teen deaths from heroin overdose. Plano enjoys one of the lowest crime rates in the United States and was recently voted the most conservative city in the US as well. More on Mr. S- http://k-12.pisd.edu/centen/schimel.htm.

Shows what I know. I thought it was named after the principal. Ha!
I think this Wikipedia entry is wrong. It says that people were doing heroin during the rash of teen suicides in '83. They weren't doing heroin. They were just gassing themselves in their cars and hanging themselves in the closet. It has only become the teen heroin capital recently.

I should qualify that. It's one of the lowest for cities with a population over 100K. So, you're unlikely to get mugged, however, your disenfranchised children will probably do drugs and/or kill themselves.
