Oh you moved to the boonies boonies haha. Love that the Wikipedia page for Ocean Falls has a photo captioned “An uncharacteristically sunny day in ocean falls”
Noo, Ocean Falls was a ghost town once the sole employer moved out with the pound-foolish reduction of manufacturing in this region. I only learned of it from my wife’s dad’s stories of growing up in this remote community; and then learned it’s a unicorn town with a surprisingly advanced infrastructure and travel potential that gives it massive potential for restoration as a quiet, remote community for select workers and some eco-tourism operations.
So it’s a common schtick to champion it as a prime candidate for reopening and investment, since it has the infrastructure to support a small but dense population with modern mixed-use buildings and ship-based trade, even though the population has been essentially 3 people for decades and there’s no road in.
