Churches, children's community athletics, children's school activities and YMCA.
In terms of religious, racial, economic and cultural diversity, are the people of this city or town diverse? Are they accepting of differences? Describe.
People are accepting of racial differences, but the population is not as diverse as other towns closer to the urban areas. The Republican party dominates, but is considerably liberal. The expensive housing and taxes may limit some people's ability to relocate here.
What are the main industries in this city? What types of career opportunities commonly exist? How do most people find new jobs?
No large industry, which creates a tax-base problem for the schools, which are of high quality. Small, local businesses abound, but most people commute elsewhere to work.
If a friend of yours was thinking of moving to this city or town from far away, what other advice would you give them.
You will love it. It is the best of suburban life within a short drive to 2-3 major metropolitan areas, 2 hours to the Jersey shore and 1 hour to the Pocono Mountains.
