OK, if its too late to stop them, send them on, they’ll be welcome.
Aw, thanks! Are there any liberals around? My dad has no one to argue with since he retired. Now he just rants and raves and gets aggravated because my mom and I agree with him.
Yeah, libs are most everywhere, but East Tennessee is pretty heavily conservative. Now if they’re headed to west Tennessee, that’s like a whole other state with libs all over the place.
A lot of them have already bailed from my hood. In truth, not many of the seem to have ever arrived in the first place. It sort of went straight from Greatest Generation and Silent Generation to Xers. I think most of the boomers in this metro area tended to go more for the larger McMansion type homes from the get go, the hood where I live is a hodge podge from early 1900s to preset, mostly so called “mid 20th century.”
This is what I’ve been saying all along. During the last great housing recession in the early 1980’s, the boomers were still raising families, and needed those three, four, and five bedroom homes. Now, they can get by with one or two bedrooms quite comfortably, as long as there’s a family room, or den. They’re not going to be shoring up the prices of the McMansions like they used to.
