The thing with Riverhead is that it's neither suburban nor rural anymore, which gives it the look it has. Until as little as 10 years ago, it was still basically a farming community. It was a rural farming town. Picture bigger towns in other rural areas, like Rutland, Vermont, or places upstate. Rural areas are often "scraggy" looking if you think of them like you do suburban areas. The problem with Riverhead is that suburbanization has begun to creep in more and more each year, but it's still has it's somewhat rural look mixed in, which makes it look bad. It's problem is that it's a rural area that's losing it's ruralness but it's trying to be suburban, and it's not quite there yet either. |
