My neighborhood is changing a lot Some of these are positive, but some are negative. More people are moving into the neighborhood. This is a positive thing. These new residents are shopping in the neighborhood, so they are spending money locally. This helps local businesses a lot, and develops a sense of community. A lot of new buildings are going up as well, but l don’t think this is a good thing. lt is creating a lot of noise, and many of the new homes are sitting empty. There are now a lot of new homes, but there are some older, empty homes. There are more children in the neighborhood now, but no one is building more parks, and l know we will need more of these in the future. Overall, l think the way the neighborhood is changing is a positive thing.
