    The area that I live in is great. There are kids that run around and promote happiness all day in any weather. It is a quite place for the most part. The people are wonderful, they great me anytime I come outside.
    The Local Businesses in my community are good businesses, but you cannot get everything you need from one store. In order to get everything needed you have to go to multiple businesses and they aren't all together. It is easier to go to a business that is every where and in different states.
