When I planned on moving I would first go to a laundromat that is local to my new home and do a small load of clothes while reading a book. During the 2 hours I would check out what kind of characters would come in, knowing that they probably lived nearby. Also, I shopped at the local supermarket for 30 minutes to check out who is there. If I didn't like what I saw then I would check another neighborhood before committing to moving.
Wait.... I've been to many many many washaterias/laundrymats.... ALL had single moms with their 20+ unleashed kids running around. Do decent laundry mats exist???

A supermarket is the best tell of a neighborhood. You can see if it is upmarket on whether or not they lock up the condoms and cosmetics.
Good idea but it in rural cities, even biggish ones like Knoxville regular folks don’t go to landry mats.
