This is a sad, but accurate, statement about Youngstown. I must agree with many of the comments, one needs to simply leave the area and experience other communities to really see the degradation of a once vibrant steel town. I too left right after my college graduation, 25 years ago. It saddens me to see the city struggle, I still have some family (many have moved to the South near me) and friends in the Youngstown area, they all seem to struggle with economic conditions.
To say thanks, Nemenz will offer refreshments Saturday
Can anyone tell me how the Hubbard grocery store situation turn out? Weren't they being hassled by the UFCW as well, several months ago?
