The one thing I don't like about where we live is the lack of diversity. For a town that is less than 10 miles from a major city (Boston), you would expect to find a bigger mix of people but the population here is pretty homogeneous. Just about everyone who lives here is a white, married, Christian, Democrat (it is Massachusetts after all). I'm not implying that the people in our city are closed minded or racist, it's just that the lack of diversity is something that I didn't really notice until we had been here a few years and my daughter started school and then, once noticed, it became glaring. Having grown up in a multi-cultural city, I sometimes find the lack of variety here (in people, restaurants, shops, opinions) to be extremely dull. I have made a conscious effort to expand my daughter's horizons in this regard and I feel that she is very open and accepting of everyone she meets but I worry that she is growing up with too much uniformity...
