Williston
A few weeks ago Sara, Kaylan, Meika, and I conducted surveys around different neighborhoods in Williston to help with the Design Workshop we were having at the end of the month. I'm typically a real wimp about knocking on people's doors to ask them to buy things or fill out something, but this wasn't too bad. Everyone was friendly and some were even enthusiastic about getting their opinions out there about what they think is going on in Williston. As far as the town goes, Williston mainly seemed kinda sleepy. The main concerns of the people I talked with were a lack of medical choices, such as a local physician and not enough restaurant variety or shopping. Only one couple talked about a drug problem or that there were areas they deemed unsafe. Overall I found the survey experience interesting. It gives you a chance to get a first hand account of the types of people living in the community and how different demographics are distributed.
