Small Town Lifestyles

Small Town Lifestyles

A generation or two ago, we were much more driven by the local economy than now. If we didn't grow our own produce, we bought it at a nearby market, often from an area farmer. We lived in houses that were just big enough and close to work and the shops we frequented. The small towns where many of us lived offered cultural opportunities and a wonderful way of life. We knew how to slow down and enjoy ourselves.
