Salina in some parts is so wild that there are animals, tutles and skunks I saw at night while dring a beer outside the market near Tony's Pizza factory ownd by the "Schwan" family.
There are people in Salaina as well. You can see the eating real beef and real great beef hamburgers or at the walmart.
Most people work at the Tony's factory or there is a chocalate "russetts" 20 miles away.
I was there for almost a whole year. I stayed at the Salina Rescue Mission for free however nothing is really "free" as it may appear..
Housing- Salina downtown purports to have cheap rooms, the problem is the people who control those rooms ask a million questions and have you fill out lots of forms. They are so picky thats why lots of us new comers to the city, end up at the Salina Rescue Mission.
When I say the Salina resue mission is "free"its not really free -you have to live with ex-cons who have lived there for years(not kidding)and curfew is always 530 pm to listen to a Jesus speech or some kind of guest preaching. before the "free" meal. If you work at Tony's Pizza factory( next door) you can save a bit of money although Tony's pizza only hire's temporaries at the temporary service place next to it. But if you tell them you stay at the rescue mission they may hire you more than other people. Most of the regular employees are from Vietnam. Don't be jealous its not easy working at Tony's pizza, though you can eat all the free pizza you want.
Many of the "ex-cons" from the rescue mission hang out at the downtown Salina Public Library. Because of that there is EXTREME TENSION in this library the Library Security guards stare you down. Not only that but anyone getting on the Salina bus from the rescue mission the "Bus Drivers" hate and despise and often 86 you from the buses so you may need to get a car. So by the fact you stay at the rescue mission the bus drivers and library security guards treat you like as if you were in a nut house.
Despite this, Salina is a great place because the old 50 style reataurants have the best "real beef" hamburger I had ever tasted in my life. plenty of "real beef" in this city. there is wild life and places to walk and the air is clean and fresh and winters are not too cold.
and also the walmart and tony'ys pizza is walking distance to the rescue mission.
On Sundays you can catch the free bus from walmart parking lot and go to the casino for free almost to topeka and it leaves at 8 am sharp.
the casino is cool because you actually play "craps" like Las Vegas.
