I have a small town in mind, about 1,200 people. Most of the residents are retirees - boating, fishing, hunting, etc.
But there has to be a support network, small businesses - tack shops, grocery store, gas station, etc. - so these residents have children.
1. How many children are reasonable in a small town like that?
2. I need at least twelve second-graders, boys, age 9-10 in a story
3. How is the school arranged? Do they all go to the same school, grouped regardless of age? Do some of them get bussed off to a larger town?
My main concern, I need 12 boys of 9-10 years old to be in a town. How big of a town you think it needs to be to accomodate this number of boys?
They boys will be missing, but nothing bad will happen to them, this is not a sick story, only on a surface.
