Great post... btw much luck is earned... nice work.

Let me share a thought about what you describe... I grew up in a neighborhood like that... they were very common in the US in the 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's... I would say in the 90's I noticed the tectonic plates shifting.

I worked for a large corporation in the 90's... and I'll never forget the first mandatory "multicultural" training I had to attend. It was DEI before DEI came onto the scene.

Long story short, imo life was simpler, satisfying, and more enjoyable back then. And I know many people that would love to travel back in time and live in a neighborhood like yours.

Embrace and cherish what you have! And may we work to create and .maintain an environment like that for our kids and grandkids.

All it really takes is a few individuals to build a neighborhood culture where we look out for each other, help out when it makes sense (and don't look to the government), and a build a true live and let live ethos

I'm grateful for the people around us every day and have genuine love in my heart for them (even though we don't see eye to eye on all things)

Beautiful... that's awesome. Can I ask if it's in a blue or red state?
