Of important note, Sarita is also a town of artists. Sarita has more artists, designers and people working in media than 90% of the communities in America. This concentration of artists helps shape Sarita’s character.
It is a fairly quiet town because there are relatively few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. (Children, for example, often can't help themselves from being noisy, and being parents ourselves, we know!) Sarita has relatively few families with children living at home, and is quieter because of it. Renters and college students, for their own reasons, can also be noisy. Sarita has few renters and college students. But the biggest reason it is quieter in Sarita than in most places in America, is that there are just simply fewer people living here. If you think trees make good neighbors, Sarita may be for you.
Sarita is also nautical, which means that parts of it are somewhat historic and touch the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and bays. Such areas are often places that visitors and locals go for waterfront activities or taking in the scenery.
One downside of living in Sarita is that it can take a long time to commute to work. In Sarita, the average commute to work is 36.07 minutes, which is quite a bit higher than the national average.
Sarita is very much a car-oriented town. This is because the population of Sarita isn't large enough or dense enough to support an extensive public transit system. It has a lot of rural roads, and the distance between houses can be quite large, which together tends to discourage walking and bicycling to work. 100.00% of residents commute to work in their own car (and the drive is typically to a job out of town). People also tend to drive out of town for other services as well, such as shopping, doctors appointments, and more.
As is often the case in a small town, Sarita doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
