Hillsborough is a medium sized suburban town. Hillsborough c is a really nice town to live in. It has tons of good local and chain restaurants to eat at. Nice parks to visit wor walks or bike rides like Duke farms. Hillsborough has everything you could need. The schools in Hillsborough are really good and the high school has a high ranking. Hillsborough has god housing, neighborhoods, apartments, and more for people from many financial backgrounds. At Hillsborough could spend a whole having fun from watching movies at the movie theater, eating out, visiting a park, library, and more. Hillsborough is also near other towns that have great places too.
Full of wealth people, very high average income, very expensive homes, but the dividends are the very safe area, nearly zero crime, the positive quality and quantity of resources, the nearby businesses, and mostly trustable people and friendly neighbors. Fairly diverse, due to the disproportionally high number of Asian Americans. A very "perfect" part of America in the sense of prosperity, safety, and lack of horrible occurences.
I enjoy the size of the town, as it is not too large, yet not too small. Hillsborough has a good community where I feel like it is a “safer” town in that not many dangerous activities happen. We have a good amount of restaurants and places to eat, however there could be more in addition to the different leisure activities to do with friends and family. One thing I would change is the demographics and diversity of the town. As an Asian-American living in my town, I tend to feel out of place and even sometimes inferior to most of the population, for an example when I’m at school. For the past 5 years, I found myself looking around the classroom and realizing there are not many kids that look like me or of the same race. Predominantly this town is caucasian and I would like to see more racial diversity within, making me feel apart of a community as an Asian-American.
