Obsessed with the idea of moving to Carmel... but don't have any kids. Is it still worth it?

Hey everyone! I'm an urbanist who currently lives in a middle of nowhere suburban sprawl town in South Carolina, and I plan on moving closer to the city I'm nearby to have a more walkable and urban lifestyle in a couple of years. Unfortunately the city does have its shortcomings, and from an urbanist POV, isn't the top of what I'd consider satisfactory.

But I've been watching a lot of videos about Carmel, its story, and what it's current and future infrastructure and urban planning is looking like. I've been teetering on the idea of giving Carmel a visit to see if it is right for my girlfriend and I...

However a lot of what I've seen says that Carmel is best for families, and my girlfriend and I don't plan on ever having a family. So I'm wondering if it is still worth taking that visit and potentially moving forward with making a move? I'd appreciate any input from single people or childless couples in the area. Thanks a ton!

Please do not tell me people believed a word Nirav Shah said in that debate.

Nirav Shah is a complete grifter. 3 months ago, he was fighting for landlords, was pro-AIPAC and Israel, pro private school vouchers, and was overall extremely establishment centrist democrat.

Now all of the sudden, he’s this major progressive that wants to abolish ICE and call the war in Israel a g*nocide? (Only censoring cause idk if it’s allowed on Reddit)

It’s almost like he saw where the wind was heading with Platner, sees the momentum of Troy Jackson and said “hey! I’ll piggyback this movement and grift my way to the seat!”

I bet he isn’t gonna do a single progressive move if he makes it to that senate seat. I don’t believe a word he said. I still believe in Troy, but man someone’s gotta get him a public speaking class. However don’t let his weak performance make you lean towards Shah who is playing the state like a fiddle.

The Grain That Built A Hemisphere (1943)

An interesting propaganda film from Disney. I found it a couple days ago and got around to putting it on my Disney in the Public Domain channel.
