by: Ross

Sorry for the delay gents. In about two hours I got a new toy to play with and one of my more popular websites decided to not work anymore. SO I’VE BEEN A BIT BUSY.

Here are the answers to the bonus questions:

  • What percentage of the population is elderly (55+)?
    • 6.3% (129)
  • What percentage of the population are children (under 18)?
    • 56.4% (1,160)
  • Average rent amount?
    • 178$

  2. WOW, when you put the numbers together its quite shocking…

    You have 1,160 kids — living with a Single Mom — of which less than half are employed.

    So the 234 households that earn employment income - may have a chance to work themselves into a better apartment/housing (”Work Force Housing”) - which could mean better schools.

    But what about the other 519 households that don’t have income?

  3. Yeah it is kind of terrifying. I keep talking about this with a couple people and it seems like you need to educate people on how jobs work. Even if it puts you at a loss for a couple years having a job will eventually (hopefully) put you in a place to make more money.

    Although I imagine a lot of single mothers can’t afford to get a job because of childcare. Just a guess though.
