Lived just North of Norton my whole life in fact I moved out of my parents and bought a house just down the road a total of 6 out of the 12 houses on our road are owned by family. My dad grew up about a 1/4 mile away and I get kinda angry when I hear people talking bad about this side of town. It has its faults but as you may tell I do lawn care and there are far worse areas between chestnut and battlefield so it’s all over really. I really think a lot of people talking bad about the north side don’t realize that we have really quite nice neighborhoods (Springlawn, Hickory Ridge, Beverly Hills, Huntington.)

Isn’t that just every Walmart in town? They did go through and get all the homeless people out of that property a few years ago (plus a few bodies if I remember correctly) but from what I understand it’s a private property and the owner isn’t in state and doesn’t care I guess. Wish that our city would do some more to clean it up on the north side but it just gets neglected. The O’Rileys seems to be about it as far as trying to invest in the north side and actually bring in some business over here.
