Some of these people even have a clue as to how good they have it. I'm surprised a place like this even exists in 2004 life.

isn't that what it is like in wanamaker?:) or washington?

actually it surprised me how many places are like that 20 minutes outside of nyc.

the town i am in reminded me of mayberry when i moved here. just do not step outside of the 1 sq mi town. supposedly my town is/was in guiness records for having the most bars and firestations per population or sq mi.

I hate the Indy area..sorry to say. Wanamaker is a wide spot in road off 465 loop on way to Cinci.

Nothing like this little Brit village near here...sad to say. Just chewed up ex-farmland constructed into mini-Leavittowns :(

It's actually horrible here...mass people, small country roads forced to support mass traffic.

I'm getting the :swear: out of here soonest.

It's possible...just takes some time. :)

I did it and haven't regretted it. I miss the convenience of living in a big city...but there is so much more t offer where I'm at.

Good luck!
