120. Still a nice town
It's amazing the way things change though. I grew up from 8th grade on there, and when I first moved to Beardstown it was a completely redneck white's-only town. Now there's a huge hispanic population living there, the school is bilingual, and the culture has really taken off. There are still plenty of the redneck gun-totin' types, but they all seem to get along pretty well these days.
