[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in Cumberland. The town used to have a lot of high paid blue collar factory jobs and then all the factories were shut down by the 80s-90s. I moved there in the 90s and it was a safe place to grow up, although boring because the average age of the town seemed to be 70+. It was basically a retirement community for all the retired factory workers. Like someone said earlier, once the multiple prisons came in, it all changed. The drugs literally flooded in soon there after and the zombies started crawling around downtown. A large majority of the people I went to school with are prison guards as it’s basically the only well paid job left around there. I rarely go back other than for the occasional holiday, it’s turned into a real sketchy place..[/quote]
