Not the quiet, safe town I grew up in.

There's been a lot of that happening in Iowa. I haven't been in Storm Lake for over 25 years, but two years ago a friend had to go over there for some sort of weekend event and came back referring to it as "Lago del Stormo" (which is bad pidgin Spanish but apparently reasonably illuminating).

Do they still have a packing plant driving all the "diversifying?"

Yep. 2 of them.

Yep. RoadSnacks says it’s the most ‘ghetto’ town in Iowa. Marshalltown’s about as bad.
