Was great once but has lost its way

Have lived here for nearly 30 years. Used to be a place where you never had to lock your car or door - you have to now. Property taxes are skyrocketing; people who live here can't afford a house or even an apartment. Greedy developers and "investors" are land-grabbing every lot in sight. Developers seem to have council members in their pockets and are putting up unsightly "communities" for exorbitant prices/rents.
Wages are stagnant and absolute nutjobs have taken over state government/ school boards pedaling every ridiculous conspiracy you can think of.
It's a shame to see the decline. It used to be the friendly, relatively conservative, common sense place.
