There's a lot of small-town in Humbolt county, it's true. But there's also a lot of what makes smaller communities vibrant- deep social connections, community institutions that serve the greatest needs of their neighbors, along with a university that's large enough to exert significant influence.
One out best friends is the registrar at CSU Humbolt and has a great time raising her tow girls in McKinleyville. They just bought goats!
You should also reach out to Tiv. Brandy grew up in McKinleyville and her folks still live there. Both of them probably has a very different perspectives than what we bring as "occasional visitors."
