Living in a Small Town

Scott Walker February 12, 2018

Knocking on random doors in small town America is always interesting... Just aiming to capture life unexpected is the goal.

She has lived in Shelbyville, TN for nearly 50 years… She said, “Ever since ’69.” When I talked to her about others who live in Shelbyville she stated, “ I don’t socialize with nobody too much, so I guess it’s good – I don’t have nothing else.”

I asked her son to describe Shelbyville and he simply said, “It’s a’ight, it’s alright.” When I spoke of crime in the quiet southern community he responded, “I don’t know nothing about no crime around here”

“This is a small town, so everyone talks. Ironic, isn’t it—so few people, so many opinions?”
— Katarina Bivald, "The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend"
