The city of Starkville is having a hard time keeping up with the growth of the University and success of various athletic programs. That's where your bar scene and sidewalk problems come from. The city really needs to get on board and upgrade a ton of infrastructure.

Also, there just needs to be more bars. During big weekends it gets so packed that it makes it seem worse than it is because you can hardly get close enough to get a drink every 30 minutes.

Struggles of a small college town. It's already gotten so much better, just has to keep going. I think Starkville is headed in the right direction. Some of the power that were in a few hands for a very long time is seemingly being spread out more and more.

Yeah, I heard references to a few people who basically owned everything.

And also how it's really gotten this way in the recent past, for the better. I enjoyed it and could tell that it's a cool place and will get better.
