New town

lack of healthcare in rural towns is an issue that I can relate with. I decided to write about this issue because a lot of people are unaware about it. This is an issue that is growing in America because cities are growing and towns are getting smaller. So they can’t afford to keep hospitals and clinics anymore. That means people in smaller towns have to travel to the bigger cities to get their healthcare. With the more people aware about the lack of healthcare in rural towns in the United…

me both lived too long to think I’m likely to see it happen. Not in this town, not in any town half this size, in any part of this wide, green and beautiful U.S.A. We just don’t run our country that way” (Chandler, 135). Gangs held a strong hold over America in the 1940s. There was corruption everywhere, and those with money and those like Eddie Mars –upper level…

Small Town Living Both Colby and Our Town are both small towns, but they both have their differences. Our Town has a population “within the city limits: 2, 640” (Wilder 15) and colby has a population of 5,419. Our Town is a little bit smaller than Colby, but they both show similar characteristics. In small towns everyone knows almost everyone who lives there. This can be good and bad because with everyone knowing each other, news spread like a wildfire. If people do something big everyone will…

sides of the proposed Mill Square. Increasing Accessibility Spring Street would be closed during special time. To increase the accessibility, traffic volume from Main Street to Spring Street should be accommodated from and provide parking lots, a new road called Square Road is proposed along the south and west sides of the proposed square. The road is two lanes (22 feet) with one side including on-street parking (8 feet)…

was a symbol of the town’s old southern heritage. As the town progressed forward, Emily Grierson and her, “eyesores among eyesores” of a house kept the town from truly advancing as a post-civil war society. Even as the newer generation came into authority, Emily refused to acknowledge them. This tale is portrayed from the perspective of the disgruntled towns folk as they gather and reminisce about the mystery that is Emily Grierson. The towns people’s scrutiny, gossip and memories of Emily…

what it used to be and how it has fallen so far from its former glory. Using the point of view of the town’s people he also adds “only Miss Emily’s house was left” and “an eyesore among eyesores” to describe how her house fits in with the rest of the town (Faulkner 91). Faulkner is describing her house but clearly alluding to the fact that just like her house, Miss Emily doesn’t fit in anymore, she is a dying relic of a lost age. The last connection she had to the world was her father, who was…

half of these people are are younger than 35. If I had to choose where to live well, when I’m young I believe it would be better live in this type of environment. While you are younger you should be able to meet new people and see things. I feel as if living in a large city or larger town gives the opportunity to grow up more to see. When you are young you don’t want to settle down, most urban…

days, where towns were very small and everyone knew each other. Food was scarce and people did anything, even if it involved death and violence, just to live. Towns were poor and old fashioned. Families and family names were all known by one another. Just as how the people in the “The Hunger Games” dressed, I imagine the people in “The Lottery” to have the same attire. Old, ragged and formal dresses for women and suits for men. Weather was described as hot summer days in both towns. People…

United States that were rural and then became urban. A lot of the growth came from new technologies such as low-cost transportation. We will learn what it took to get some of the newer cities going. Urban growth took off with population growth, increased agricultural productivity, factory production, and low-cost transportation. The population growth was rapid among the urban areas. For the most part it had to do with new technologies. One example was the agricultural technology that would…

People have more and better access to several types of new technologies in place and are also able to get access to markets. (Settlements,…
