How were you and the area you live in affected by the economy?

Asked by comity (2837points) December 3rd, 2011

The little town where I live, time stands still. Unemployment is at 7.1% The price of houses went up. Average cost below $150,000 There was never a housing boom or a bust and the cost of living index is 86.4, below the national average. I do notice in town some empty stores, with small businesses coming and going, but I noticed that six years ago.
