I street viewed this town, since I had never looked up anything about this town before. Nor had I thought much about it ever, until now. That said after street viewing it, Mattawa looks more kept up(even if it doesn't have much, at least it has numerous local Hispanic businesses), than I was suspecting this town would be like. Seems like a la some parts of the tri-cities(Pasco, Richland, and Kennewick), it does have a good bit of Hispanic residents there. Maybe some of them moved from the tri-cities, at some point? At least the crime rate isn't high, and ditto with its poverty rate not being too high(both statistics I found off the city data profile page for Mattawa), but looking on niche.com , it's public schools could be better. The local high school is only at a C- rating on niche, and the public schools(pre-high school) only have a D+ rating.

BTW at PoliticsLover2003, I didn't know Biden had a Rehoboth home. That's interesting to learn, though in a way that doesn't surprise me.

Gibson City, IL(bonus points if you know the 2 businesses, that sometimes will drive those out of town(especially from the B-N area), to visit this town)

A town whose economy is agriculture based. Too small for my liking. Peshtigo WI.

A simple small town that is associated with the Peshtigo fire of 1871 occurring at the same time as the Chicago fire

Community west of Las Vegas with a lot of retirees. Definitely weird, but it doesn’t seem to be dangerous.

Safe to assume it's a much smaller Portland due to it's proximity.


Jackson, TN

I remember once reading online that Jackson, TN is home to the Casey Jones Museum(famous railroad engineer). I remember googling one time too, and noticing some vintage car museum also is in Jackson. I don't know much else about Jackson, beyond those 2 things.

Bristol, TN

Bristol, TN
Part of the Tri-Cities in northeastern Tennessee. I really love the natural scenery in that area. As for the city itself, I think it's neat that there's effectively one city called Bristol, but it's split off into two states, much like Texarkana AR/TX. I don't know which of the three cities on the TN side would be considered the dominant city. Like, when the plane lands at their airport, and the flight attendant says "Welcome to ____," which city does she name?

And since I brought it up: Texarkana, AR/TX.
