My wife inherited the home we live in from her father, who literally built this house some sixty years ago. On our street ( a dead end ) I believe at least half of the occupants are original owners, most are retirees in their eighties as well.

My hometown’s old timers moved to places like Florida and South Carolina. The ethnicity demographics switched from German to black and Spanish. In fact it now has the highest percentage of minorities in the state. Interestingly the main road’s called Stuyvesant Avenue after Peter Stuyvesant the first Dutch governor of New York. He expelled the Quakers and Jews from New Netherlands. Perhaps that impressed for the town’s mandate to desegregate with busing in the late 60s.  BC-A, Bill’s R®st w
