@Barrys.Better.Half , still loving these maps. Hey, question, would you be offended if I took the data you have entered on these maps, and created a HotSpot Analysis and posted in this thread?
I would completely understand if you’d prefer me not. No biggie. Just wanted to ask.
Great job on these awesome maps. :heart: :heart: :heart: You Rock

Name: Fantasy Shop - Maplewood
Address: 7329 Manchester Rd, St. Louis, MO 63143
Why you love it: Grew up on this place. I would go with my mom and pick up our pulled titles. We’d go make sandwiches at home that were comically large right after. We could never finish the sandwiches.

@Barrys.Better.Half I just watched a documentary on Discovery + that was set in my town. It’s about my friend from high schools mom who’s dad was suspected of murdering her. My barber & his wife who’s also my barber are all over it. Shows my friend wrestling at my high school & the flea market I posted on here. I can’t even think straight.

I’m in the middle of watching one on Discovery+ about a serial killer who killed a bunch of people around my home area, who also did terrible stuff in another area I also lived in for a while. Lots of familiar set up shots in it, plus a couple cops I’ve met in both areas.
But I’m kind of used to it, because my mom’s cousin did something horrible in the '90s that made national news.
I feel for you.

Man that’s crazy ty too btw. My towns 2700 1st murder ever. I knew every single person in the documentary. Every single shot too. Takes maybe 10 mins to drive thru the entire town. My cousin is the oldest cold case in Akron’s history but that’s a whole other deal. She was murdered b4 I was born & Akrons no stranger to that type of thing. Only other murder in town I grew up in was a cab driver that kids from an area far away robbed and shot him in our town, but nobody was from there. It was actually the same road that this friend of mine lived, with my other friends family, when he was kicked out of his house. Way out in the sticks.
