Do you think that you would want to raise a family in a small town or a big city? How could Rindge market towards a different target market?
I think I would like to go to a big city, but I hate to see children in a big city with their parents.. it seems like a very artificial place that lacks the "bubble" that kids might might need. I feel that a lot of people should feel the need to move somewhere less blunt. Small towns seem to help develop manners too, which is tougher to see in a place like NYC or Boston. The fact that you can walk somewhere in Keene and people smile and say "hi" makes a big difference.
Rindge could market towards people looking to build a family and help reinforce positive parental "teachings" I guess. I think that Rindge could also work on improving its amenities before it can fully develop itself as a marketable place. I personally do not know that much about the area, but from what I've seen it is very peaceful and quiet. It's close to ski resorts and it's a great escape.
What does Keene do to market itself, other than the college? Why do people stay here after they graduate, for example?
