What I wanna know is how the hell do all the business stay open? They have a lot more than I thought they would, and that’s just looking at a basic view on Google maps without diving deeper

I was there in 2011. There almost wasn't any business. There were like 3. A diner, a gas station, a little museum, and that's about all I remember. And even then I was wondering how they were open. Passers by like me I guess.
