salem looks nice. it doesn't look like too big of a city, but there's also roanoke in the area so overall i guess the place is big. the residential areas are nice, and i like the stadiums as well.

Its nice in those pictures, but its suburbia hell down the street, and theres no stopping it...the city itself is only around 20 square miles, with a population of 25,000...There is also a town like this one called Vinton, on the other side of town, maybe ill get that soon, I know Salem Avalanche play the Wilmington Blue Rocks this weekend in your city, were good this year, (3-1) vs your team (2-3) but its still earlier on!
