In my city it is a small city where you are bound to see a person at Walmart and again at Target. Even though there are many people here, the city is still small enough to recognize your fellow neighbors anywhere! There is a library, parks and entertainment to keep the little ones busy and entertained. There is also a YMCA which offers a variety of of classes and activities for both parents and children, lots of schools and restaurants around as well.
I have live in El Mirage is small town and i have lived their almost all my life. In my childhood it was fun growing up there ,but it really wasn't how it is now and while growing up it started changing for the good, but i still notice somethings that need to be improved on. So my future plan is to reach my goal and come back to help El Mirage become a safer place.
El Mirage is a small city, it is still growing and the older areas of the city are being updated with a recent surge of cash into making the city look nicer. Recent renovations include a large new park, a YMCA, a new police department and making roads wider. The downside to all of the new construction includes traffic and of course the messy look with all of the construction materials and equipment on the side of the road. Construction on the roads has taken over two years which seems unreasonable for such a small stretch of road. The high school in the city has seen its fields and campus improve as well, the people of the city seem kind and usually stay out of trouble. Living in an area with a large air force base nearby can be a little loud with the occasional F-35 or F-16 flying overhead. However, having military personnel living in the communities within El Mirage is good.
