You can get the city to down a tree on your property if it’s close enough to the sidewalk

Watch for limber houses in the summer and keep a dollar bill on ya.

The city is so small there’s never a reason to search for parking at an event. Street parking is free in lots of neighborhoods. Park your car a little closer then call an Uber.

Every Friday there’s a church on Illinois st that has free food for anyone who needs it.

There’s a ton of small hikeable areas in most neighborhoods. Take a walk.

City buses are free right now

Best way to describe it for you would be like, a Puerto Rican snow cone. People make them to sell.

Totally agree about parking. In my experience, there is always free or at least metered parking nearby—you just gotta look around a bit.

the city will down a tree on your property, but if the tree on your neighbor's property is dropping limbs on pedestrians and your pooping dog, the city will shrug at you and make you do all the research of figuring out how to contact the absentee slumlord that owns the tree.

then one day a storm throws the tree into the slumlord's building and suddenly everyone gives a shit.

Heads up on the trees, the city obviously won’t charge for cutting if it’s on Woo property, but they will do a haphazard job.

Yes, but also, they will cut a tree if it’s on your property but close enough to the sidewalk. Haphazard or not, I’d rather pay for a stump grinder than hiring someone to cut the tree.
