Also, the area has rising property, income, and sales taxes beside high homeowners insurance, failing local businesses, and a lack of critical population mass (taxes) to support essential services. In addition, they need another major exit road that they cannot afford.

The odds of being robbed or violently attacked are pretty high, and there's black bear.
