Gainseville is trying to grow in the opposite direction of the influx. There are parts of Gainseville now that I don't even recognise anymore. The litter, the bars on the windows, the hole in the wall-greasy spoons and pawn shops, loiterers, and junk cars/junk yards make people LEAVE. It's sad how the influx cannot integrate and work WITH the community.
Are you saying that Gainesville is growing towards the south?
