In our area its pretty much republican 85% or more, all white hardly ever see any black folk, a few Mexicans.
Lots of long time residents, 30 years several generations of family.
We have an amazing group of friends, gays, yes several gay folks in our community, ranchers, red necks, hippies, growers of pot since the late 60's early 70's, amazing fruit and veggie growers, wineries,the most organic gardens in state. mostly around here ranchers and lots of older folk.
Our out of closet gay friend who has lived here 50 plus years remarked at dinner no one round here gives a fuck about who is fucking who or who is growing or doing what. Just let me keep my guns and do not fuck with my water and we do not care what you do he said..
He is out but respected. Helps at the high school fund raisers, tamale table raises lot of cash for football team..
It takes time were he 16 years and still are considered newbies.
The thing is is to be a benefit to the community which can be done in many ways.
I know for a fact our involvement in fund raisers has been noticed by more than the Fire dept, the local sheriff has been on my side when I flipped my truck, he knew who I was and was real cool, pissed I got a ticket from state patrol.
Just be who you are find folks with similar interests..
