If there’s an East and West location of a store I’m usually 15 minutes away from either and I’ll go West just because it’s less traffic.
    Every neighborhood, save for really expensive stuff, is "cookie cutter" to its time and place.

      You could pretty much fall arse backwards into a nice fescue lawn out west. Same goes for well drilling. If you don't have a nice fescue lawn as a westsider I have to wonder just how lazy you might be.

      On the east side, wells aren't a thing (for the most part) and the friggin' clay makes it a nightmare to try and have a nice lawn. If you see a really nice fescue lawn out east it is because the person living there has no weekend hobbies outside of manicuring their lawn.

      Sandy west soil is also massively better for basements and foundations, as opposed to expanive clay out east.

      So ring two more up for the west side KungWu. We'll just ignore the fact that still just makes it like 132 points for the east, but now moves from like 40 to 42 for the west.

        Bet Bluegrass grows into a country club yard just by looking at it up where you are. Of course that's for only like five months of the year.

          Arctic fescue is the choice. The blends have a small % of bluegrass iirc.

              You think it beats PIPO (not really "east side").

                100%, yes.

                However I was a fan of PIPO too. RIP.

                  PIPO took care of their tax problems and are open again. 11 am to 6 pm Tuesday through Saturday I believe.

                      The fewer hours a BBQ place is open, the better they are. That's why R&S with their roughly 12 hours a week schedule will never be topped.

                            R & S was fantastic. Scotties downtown was pretty good to. He was the S of R & S.
