    "The school system is rough, neighborhood and kids are rough as well. Nothing to do around here for the kids so they end up getting into mischief. Drugs are awful here, vandalism and groups of kids come out of the works acting like gangs and doing hoodlem stuff."

    "The only transportation I know in this town is for senior citizens and your own personal vehicle. I’ve never seen a local bus, there are no trains here, and there’s no bike shop without walking a few miles to Tamaqua. I only see people riding their own personal bicycles or driving their own vehicles."
