I still paid him. Restaurant cook screamed at me in front of customers because I asked for catsup for my goulash - saying isn’t my food seasoned good enough for you? And then -we don’t want you here -you don’t belong here! Next door neighbor accused me of giving their dog something to eat [which I didn’t] saying dog puked in their house and had never done it before!!
All through this my realtor never returned my phone calls- never to this day 6 years later. Realtor lied about the home electrical, cost me 1000.00 to have electrical brought up to code.
During my six years here my dog was poisoned and killed In my backyard, vegetable garden ripped up. Only three people in the town will talk with me. I was never ever paid for carpentry and general labor for townsfolk. I live a lonely life here. Bad decision to move here. Trying to sell house cheap just to move a lot closer to the Twin Cities.
What did I do??? What makes outsiders evil?
Never needed tranquilizers or antidepressants before moving here. I am on them now!!
Just wanted small town peace and lower taxes.
Church? Well let me say this much- you can go but don’t expect people to come and introduce themselves and welcome you.
I think outsiders aren’t trusted because we have no roots or relatives down here. People watch TV and see all the crime happening in the large cities in America and assume all large city folk are dangerous - I presume.

These stories are erroneus. Either they are blown out of proportion or you're crazy. If these truly did happen you should contact local authorities or the local news.

Wow! I live in a rural area of SW Minnesota, and it is the opposite of what you just described.
