They state that the following things were considered:
•Good schools
Not good or bad according to you but based on national standards.
•Lots of jobs
This would kill many towns rankings across the mid west. Few if any jobs available to attract new people. This is what they are looking at, not if there are enough jobs for the current residents. Try looking at this as if you want to move and this is a town you are thinking about.
•Low crime
Nuff said.
•High incomes

•Solid home prices

This doesn't mean from our older folks description. This is from what younger people would think. A bar and a movie theater isn't much to do. And that's in town, not a short drive.

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
