I think thats already underwayIf I was a mayor of any small towns within a half an hour of any big city, I would be putting together one hell of an advertising campaign to attract young professionals to come live in their area and avoid the madness of what is happening in cities. Most small communities within that perimeter of Omaha can boast their community has the same number of people killed in the last 100 years that the city has in the last week. Same with sexual assaults and many other crimes. Buy or build a home for a fraction of the price on a half acre to 1 acre lot versus being sandwiched together. With Covid’s new reality, many people may only need to go into the office a couple times a week, if at all.

Building expensive ass houses towards Springfield from Papillion seems to be the exciting thing to do now.I have a few friends that have already moved to new-builds in Bennington.
I prefer waffles to pancakes.
See, I can post completely irrelevant thoughts too
They also take longer to get soggy, which I think is a plus. I’d say I was a pancaker when I was young, but came to the waffle as I grew up. People learn things and change, some might even go the other way.The thing about waffles that often times get over looked when you're deciding between the two, is that you can pack more goodies into every bite because the waffle pockets hold more syrup and whipped cream and blue berries. Pancakes are nice, but you don't get as much of the extras per bite, and I love me some extras.
There are a lot of people much braver than me. When a cop tells me to do something, I do it. I don't like the idea of being shot or thrown into jail for disobeying very much.

Yeah, who's that?They don’t refer to it as “Murderha” for nothing.

I would bet there's plenty they like about Omaha. They probably like to b**** about it as they drive into townLived here for 44 years, and have many friends from just outside the area who don't like much about Omaha, but I've still never heard anyone call it that.
i agree but you and I grew up in places where getting pulled over by the police was a very rare thing. Maybe never.There are a lot of people much braver than me. When a cop tells me to do something, I do it. I don't like the idea of being shot or thrown into jail for disobeying very much.
I think this will impact cities more than concerns about crime or homelessness or other issues. Downtown Denver has its share of problems, but young people still flocked there in droves to live in tight, costly spaces. But now that many of them rarely even go to their nearby office, the appeal might wear off quickly.With Covid’s new reality, many people may only need to go into the office a couple times a week, if at all.

Yep. Big cities have a lot of jobs but too many idiots that think they can do anything. Chicago is full of thugs. It’s just rampant. There is it respect for others based in people having either a shitty upbringing or just think this workd is only fir their rules. I don’t live their anymore as it’s a sh!tholeIf I was a mayor of any small towns within a half an hour of any big city, I would be putting together one hell of an advertising campaign to attract young professionals to come live in their area and avoid the madness of what is happening in cities.

We were headed in the same direction pre Wuhan Flu....this virus just sped it up by a decade. As the older generation dies off and the younger gen starts to make it on their own, they will shop online and work at home with zero reservations about it. As a 52 y/o...I still like to see and touch and try on what i'm buying, with amazon generous return policies for online, Zoom for work, etc....the rate of people who feel like me is rapidly disappearing.
Yeah I guess it just depends on how determined employers are to put people back in their offices 5 days/week. I'm okay working mostly from home, and I've enjoyed certain aspects of it, but I'm ready to go back to my downtown office full-time if and when that policy returns. But I feel like I'm in the minority, as I expect pushback from a whole lot of people.We were headed in the same direction pre Wuhan Flu....this virus just sped it up by a decade.

This is an interesting phenomenon. Besides the productivity aspect of work, there is a social component that is missing from remote work.My girlfriend feels the exact same way you do...she's 48, works, or used to anyway, in the Weird Herald bldg, really enjoyed her walks around down town on her lunch hour and misses them very much.
I'm 27 but you can call me 52 because I'm the same way.We were headed in the same direction pre Wuhan Flu....this virus just sped it up by a decade.

Funny, I've been marveling at how prophetic this movie was for awhile now!We'll be living in a Wall-E like world before you know it
i agree but you and I grew up in places where getting pulled over by the police was a very rare thing. Maybe never.
and if we did get pulled over we knew why we were getting pulled over before the cop walked to our car.
thats not the case in some places
i'm not condoning some peoples actions just explaining the different people have difference experiences that affect their view of the world and subsequently their behavior. and often times based on that, their behavior is a little more explainable. You and I won't understand it, because we have no idea what life has been like for all these other people.
but , yes, get out of the car and do what your told will prevent a lot of bigger problems

That's odd, I've lived in the Chicago area for over a decade and had zero problems with "thugs" bothering me. They didn't bother me in Lakeview, they didn't bother me in Rogers Park, they didn't bother me in the West Loop when it was peppered with vacant packing plants and long-empty industrial buildings. Didn't bother me on the South Side going to Midway or to the MSI. Didn't bother me on the *scary* Green Line or the Pink Line or the Red Line.Yep.

Yes there is crime, yes there is gang activity. You know where else they had that? Lincoln, Nebraska where I lived right before moving to Chicago.
But thank God the wholesome burgs of Western Nebraska don't suffer such "thugs" like big, scary Chicago does. What's that, they do? https://theindependent.com/news/cri...cle_f23c7888-2a48-11e8-a16d-33954bcd32bd.html
Well ok maybe not Grand Island but surely Kearney. What? Not Kearney either??? https://nebraska.tv/news/local/law-enforcement-seminar-discusses-gangs-in-nebraska
Maybe we'd all be safer in wherever it was they robbed those people's house while they were at the funeral?
Anywhere you find enough humans you'll find crime. INCLUDING police forces. Some people are good and some people are shitty. How many of you have ever worked even ONE job where there wasn't a guy you had to work with who was a total piece of shit? Well they have that when you're a cop, too. Except their total piece of shit gets a gun and a badge. What's hard to imagine about that?

Grand Island and Kearney are likely to be a product of their location on I-80...which is a major drug thoroughfare.

That started 10 years ago.Building expensive ass houses towards Springfield from Papillion seems to be the exciting thing to do now.
Throngs of people refer to it as “Murderha”.Yeah, who's that?
Old Irving here. Plenty safe.Here in Pilsen there’s a little bit of thuggery here and there that’s mostly a spill over from Little Village/Cicero, and there was a time when no one would come down here, but that was 7+ years ago. Now the only thuggery I’ve witnessed so far is the city wide curfew of 9pm on alcohol sales.
