| 33. sounds like typical suburbia to me |

Yupsters from 'everywhere' moving in....typical suburbia
Lots of places in the suburbs have problems with the dropout rate.
Most school districts in the cash-strapped non-Southern states of California and Oregon are having stuff like student fees, library cutbacks, fees for transportation, etc. happen.
Just do your part to preserve the pretty green spaces for me, please?
