Environment
How is a community affected by its environment?
The things in the environment affect a community. His or her environment can also affect a person. For instance, some years ago in my community, it was pleasant, there wasn’t anyone on the streets, there weren’t any abandoned buildings, and there was a different race of people living there. I live in the Lawndale Community. Now all that has changed because of what affected them. These people moved from the neighborhood to other places where they felt they needed to be. What made these people move away was other people, per say, black people. They also left because of other job opportunities in other places. There were some other ethnicity’s that lived in my neighborhood before blacks came into the picture. Like Italian and Polish people.
Weather plays a major part in an environment also. In my neighborhood there is always rain, snow, and cold wind. When this occurs not many people want to go outside. Santos agrees with me when i say this. And in the summers its very hot too. But for people who live down south and out west, they live in the tornado zone or hurricane zone areas. These people who experience these horrible storms may want to move somewhere where there aren’t tornadoes, hurricanes, and earthquakes. I don’t know why these people still live in tornado zone areas. I think that they don't want to leave because that's where their lives are. The environment that the community lives in are affected totally by what happens in that environment.
