Nobody in this town. Most people we know don't even know where their front door key is. Most of us leave the keys in our cars too.

And what town would that be? Asking for a friend who just got out of prison.

LOL. It's Petersburg Alaska and is not unique. 2500 souls on an island.

NO bridge. NO road in or out. You will need a boat or an airplane to get here or leave.

Principle industry is commercial fishing. Hunting for deer, geese, ducks etc. are major recreational and subsistence activities.

You may assume that everyone is armed as we have bears and wolves that are commonly encountered on local trails and occasionally wander into town.

Culture wise - 12 churches, 2 bars. That pretty much sums it up. Every business is hiring right now; hurting for workers.

...and we got three inches of snow last night. Raining now.
