Reviewing The Benefits Of A Small Town

By Joseph Tranturder


If you have just graduated college, you are probably trying to decide where you would like to settle down to begin your life. If you are married, you definitely have to take into account your spouse's opinion about where you would like to settle down and perhaps start a family.

Tornados can cause extensive damage to structures and injuries to persons during the storm itself, but the danger presented by a tornado does not end with the clearing clouds. A study of injuries sustained during tornados showed that up to fifty percent of all injuries were incurred after the storm had passed.

Big cities are filled with skyscrapers that make their inhabitants feel small and unimportant. However, a smaller city may manage to keep the smaller buildings. This can foster citizen pride and self esteem. In addition, things are much closer together when they are smaller.

Because of this continued danger, clean-up efforts by both homeowners and professional restoration services must be handled with safety as the top priority.

It can also make traveling possible for those who do not walk long distances very well. In addition, the buildings in a smaller city tend to match each other in style more. This creates a personality and style for the small city. A city personality can be quite attractive.

However, it could very likely go the other way as well. Someone may have grown up in downtown Chicago, and never want to live in a big city ever again.

Because of these prevalent dangers lurking in the damaged homes of tornado victims, a family or homeowner who has sustained damage to their home during a tornado should have the proper authorities inspect the home for safety issues before reentering the property. Once cleared for reentry, safety should still be observed and practiced.

These people would love to move to a small town, and maybe commute into the city for work if they have to. There are several other reasons why many people would love to live in a smaller town.

In addition, small cities are often able to preserve their historical sites in a more natural condition than big cities. In big cities, historical sites will pop up here and there, but they are surrounded by tall, modern buildings and technology. This often takes away from the experience of the historical site, unless the site is connected to technology in some way. However, in a small city, these historical sites often fit into the scenery still.

People who live in small towns usually feel comfortable letting their children play outside or letting them walk down the street. In contrast, if you lived in a big city, you would most likely not feel comfortable letting your child roam around outside.

This has removed many historical sites from the large cities. These historical sites really added a lot to the city before they were removed. It is not only what a small city has that a large one does not that can make smaller towns an attractive vacation and living site. What a small city does not have can also add to the value of a small town. Small cities tend to not have large, signature projects. These kinds of projects are manifest all over a large city though.

General safety tips that a homeowner should remember while cleaning up a damaged home after a tornado include monitoring the radio or television for emergency information, wearing protective gear, reporting and staying clear of downed power lines, and being aware of dangers such as broken glass and exposed nails.

Another admirable quality of small towns is that they have smaller businesses. They have fewer fast food chains and grocery stores that are found all over the nation. Instead, they have authentic home started restaurants that are high in quality. These restaurants also tend to have wonderful, relaxing or fun atmospheres that can add a lot to a vacation.

By keeping safety in mind at all times following a tornado, a family and a homeowner in Louisburg will be able to avoid injury while restoring their damaged home.
