There are lots of things Albion needs to make sure it is a great place for
people to live in. We need more places for kids, more stores, medical facilities
and opportunities for interaction.
If there were more soccer fields, playgrounds or places like Kids
'N' Stuff,
the kids of Albion wouldn't be as bored. They would places they could go on
their own to have fun and do things. They wouldn't be hanging around smashing
things or hurting people.
We need a mini mall because people may not have transportation to go place
to place. If we had a mall, people could walk there, instead of not being able
to go where they really want to go.
Libraries need to more interactions because its just like what I said about
the soccer fields, kids get bored and some do bad things that hurt Albion.
There should be a hospital because somebody might have been in a serious car
accident and need medical treatment fast. They might not make it because a
hospital is not close enough to save them.
There should be more community events to allow people an opportunity to experience
things they may not normally come in contact with. The events could entail
having a smaller version of the Ann Arbor art fair, or perhaps if more restaurants
opened, there could be a Taste
of Albion event. Basically, I think Albion needs
to reinvent itself to attract more people to visit or move here.
