Bay St. Louis is my kind of town, more accurately described it is a small city with a current population just under 8,000 people. It's small enough to be friendly, to have ample free parking, to be easy to get around in, and to be attractive with

many shrubs, larg^| trees, andja natural setting ofjtranquility.
the other hand, Bay St. Louis is large enough to afford 1U amenities and creature comforts our generation has grown to appreciate and expect. Citizens of this town pretty much write their own tickets. Name it.	? .
Basically everybody needs air^ food ? clothing ? and shelter. In this age of pollution our town rates high on the national scale of pure, fresh and good smelling air. Our trees cut down on pollution ancjf our close proximity to the Bay, bayous, rivers and streams gives us a healthful amount of humidity.
The water supply is both adequate and potable, supplied from deep wells and health department tested on a regular basis.
