Your response: My small rural community is made of a diverse population. The majority of the people who live here are retirees. At times we have a few young families with children moving in as renters, but it is almost always a very temporary occurrence. While small and rural, my desire is that my community is treated fairly in the Redistricting process.

Another marker is located at Little Ogeechee Church. We also have the Black historic St. Johns Missionary Baptist Church.

Use these questions to think more about how you would describe your community...
  - What should politicians and/or map drawers know about your community?
  - What are the needs of your community?
  - Is there anything else you want to tell us about your community?

Examples of needs or concerns: Keep community in the same district or separate into multiple districts, shared policy concerns, need for a social service, relationship to other nearby communities, issues with current district lines

Your response: The entire intersection that has one flashing traffic light needs to be revamped. Since residents have to travel to either Sylvania or Statesboro for necessities such as access to medical services, shopping for food, gas for their cars and all other necessities. It would definitely be a plus to have at least some of those services closer to where we live. I want to see fair Redistricting of my community so there will be a chance of us getting some of the life necessities that we deserve.
