College Kids Back In Town

Pavel · 08-31-2010, 04:19 PM

I happen to live in a college town. Last week was the first week for classes. I could tell because the car accident raised about 25%. I love the bustle of the college but I could go all year without the new drivers. But I guess I have to take the good with the bad. One thing about it, they are good for the businesses in town.

They are good for local businesses , I live near Marshall University and they are great for bringing in money into the local economy , more so for the bars .

You are right, college kids bring a lot of money into the cities (towns) that they are in. I live right next to a college town and it's a hassle to drive around but they are adding money to the local economy.

I hear you. I live near a college town. A big college town and the traffic has increased so much that we are starting to have a few traffic jams after they came back to town. I don't mind though. I own one of those small businesses they like to frequent! I'm happy!
