JC, the majority who shop at Walmart aren't white, on welfare and/or lives in a trailer park. Deland is pretty ethnically diverse, and there are people from all walks of life who shop there considering Deland is a one horse town, and very few people will take the effort to do their shopping at 3-4 stores a shopping trip in order to avoid it entirely.

Furthermore, there is a fine line between over confidence and just being an egotistical @#$ hole with a superiority complex. Do yourself a favor and try to keep it classy.

However, I won't disagree with you when you say Walmart employees are awful. I've had nothing but bad experiences with them for the past several years in which I've had the displeasure of living in this armpit of a town. It would seem that they have dismally low standards.

As far as Deland changing...Yes, that is true, and I don't like it, but I really don't have much of an attachment for this town so I don't care. Thankfully, I don't own property here.

With that being said, Deland used to have it's bad areas, but said areas eventually encompassed the entire city.

Needless to say I won't be sad when I eventually move out of town.


Are you sure this is what you would like to do?
