Disappointing, once a nice place.

I know the guy who runs potpourri natural foods.

Willmar has become a Somali ridden shit hole.
Call me a racist all you want, but I have seen the changes first hand.

Willmar has been devolving for at least twenty years. Major dump now, sad. Lots of good patriots there but very few willing to stand up and fight. We avoid it if at all possible and have for a long time.

I live 4 miles east of Willmar, been in the area since 1993. It’s a shit hole.
I’ve seen shit at Walmart that would make most people run and hide, I guess I’m getting used to it.
The Mexicans even hate the Somali’s, not trying to sound racist but them fuckers can’t drive for shit.
Cool brewery downtown, one person from your group can’t drink that way someone can be armed, I’m serious.
My church in Willmar loves everyone but me because I support Trump, I’ve been asked by a few members to find a new church.
I could go on for days...
My little town is good though. High taxes, small town gossip and we know who the democrat voters are.

oof my folks just bought a place down in that area. think they said they were closer to new london though. Sounds like my dad is going to be missing northern minnesota in great haste.

Another town ruined by Lutheran Social Services.

That, and a meat packing plant.

Long Prairie has the same issues. It sounds like the Mexicans drove out most of the blacks and Somalis. But now the Puerto Ricans have been moving in, loud and obnoxiously. I think the elementary school is down to 40% white, partly due to white flight.

Had a drug related shooting a month or so back, one Puerto Rican dead, one injured. Pretty unusual for our rural county.
