I am so weary of living in small towns that foster a culture of aversion to change.
It seems like small towns sometimes refuse to adapt because the residents have been stagnant as well as comfortable for so long.
This not only keeps the neighborhood feeling small, ancient, as well as stale, but it also works against the local residents in the long run. When current dealers aren’t allowed into the town, it means there is no competition. This drives up prices on specialty goods as well as services, as well as keeps the neighborhood in the economic dark ages. That’s exactly what happened in my current hometown until a current HVAC dealership moved in last year. Apparently for over 100 years there was only one ventilation company in town, as well as all the people had to use them for any heating as well as cooling demands. Because they provided an in-demand service, the HVAC company was able to charge any amount of money for their services, then unfortunately, this meant multiple families were unable to afford the cost of having their furnace serviced or a current A/C unit installed, and many people were going without satisfactory indoor air temperature control simply because the services were out of their budgets. Then last year a brand current HVAC company opened its doors, as well as everything changed, however right off the batt, they introduced highly reduced pricing on proper services as well as equipment. Suddenly all the people could afford to have their seasoned heating as well as cooling systems repaired or upgraded! The seasoned HVAC company was forced to lower their prices, as well as now both of these small dealers are working to keep their prices in line.
