Waukesha, Wi had a population of about 30,000 when I was born. It was 70,000 when I left. They built up so much, that now they're going to receive water from Milwaukee after running their aquafers dry and begging for water for years. The last city I lived in was about 100,000. I now live about 160 mi. away from there and it's surprising how such a small distance can make such a large impact. The town I live in now has a population of about 700. The kids look you in the eye when they speak to you. You don't see them texting all of the time. They seem to work hard and play hard. You go to a festival and the younger people aren't causing any problems or acting up or being disrespectful. Most of the people here don't take any crap from anyone. Sure, there's still crime, but not like the city. I needed to leave the city for my own piece of mind. People were really starting to annoy me. I know that some people love the city and I say that's wonderful. I can go out on my deck at any time day or night, and all I hear is birds, coyotes, a dog in the distance, my wind chimes and the breeze blowing through the trees.
