We see you, mom with a cargo bike commuting with kids to save a little gas money.
We see you, young adult trying to make it in a community with rising costs on everything.
We see you, average guy trying to stay positive while everyone complains about minutiae on NextDoor.
We see you, social justice warriors, desperate renters, overworked service employees, badass farmworkers, beleaguered caregivers.
We see you, too, forest nymphs, water witches, crag creatures, cycle buddies and outdoor dirtbags of every ilk.
Growth and change have been the names of the game in Central Oregon for decades now, but it doesn’t make it any easier for the locals who have stuck it out. And while the average feature story in the Source Weekly might touch on some of the details surrounding growth and change, this one’s a little different. This time, we aim to bring a little levity to the daily annoyances that come with being a local.
So let’s play a little Locals’ Bingo—this time with prizes!
