Comments

Reported as sundown by former resident, apparently there was sign.

According to a recent resident, “things are improving here. Although there is still what could be called a ‘black section’ of town, I have seen an increase in black people living, working and fully participating in the life of our city. We still have a long way to go.”(May 2012)
