Do they still have paperboys delivering in the neighborhood? At least in my area, the paper routes are covered by adult men in trucks and vans. And they cover large territories, not just individual small neighborhoods.

I have not seen a paperboy on a bike in decades.

It used to be a great way for a kid to earn money, learn to handle it and to learn discipline. I started at 10 years old and continued until 17 when I switched to working at Krogers in Produce and as a cashier (don’t dare forget their Top Value Stamps!)
