Lived here my whole life! Great place to retire if you’re rich! Mostof the people I went to school with have moved away because they can’t afford to live here anymore! We may not be far behind them!
Really? What retiree would want to move to a place with an exorbitantly high cost of living and shitty healthcare?
Lol. It’s an early April Fool’s joke!
