Penny's, and also 3 other shopping plazas which include Big K-mart and Roses's(similiar to K-mart), a Lowe's, a Tractor Supply, and Paul's Discount(fishing, hunting, hardware boating, auto parts, etc), we also have another outdoor store but I can't think of it off the top of my head).

Nightlife/Dance clubs: 2 country music bars, 1 mix of music bar.
Alcohol: Somerset is moist; meaning only certain parts of town serve alcohol in resturaunts only, the rest is dry.

Employment: factories, hotels, gas stations, resturants, car lots, supermarkets, retail, health care.
