We have had the Amish set up a community here in SE KS about three years ago. Several new families have moved here and more are coming. Our town is a small rural community, but we do have two major highways intersect here. As far as wagons and buggies, there have been no problems here. Everyone keeps a lookout for them, they have SMV signs and they seem to choose to travel during the least busy times of the day. I have never seen them out after dark in town. They may be on the roads around their farms, which are out in the middle of nowhere. I think they are a great addition to our community. As far as taking charities, not being able to pay, as was stated in previous posts, it does not stand true for this community. They probably have more money than the average citizen here in town. Wife works in hospital, and they always pay bills in full, even large hospital bills. You could have a lot worse move into your area. Could have a bunch of meth cooks move in. Which would you rather have? For all my dealings with the Amish, they are good, honest, hard working folks who hold a set of values that have long since been lost in the "English" community.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
