Interesting story! I grew up in that area and heard nothing about this.
Surprising seeing this! I lived very close to here for eight years.
Huh, that’s really not far from where I grew up, and I had no idea it existed.
As someone that grew up there, I don't blame you.
As it happens, I grew up in one.
I grew up in an area like this and it was pretty great!
I also grew up there. I never thought I’d see it mentioned on HN, let alone see someone else post here who also grew up there!
I used to live there many moons ago.
I grew up there, but I guess that doesn't count.
Note: Probably not the case everywhere, but definitely was the norm where I grew up in the burbs.
