1. Aurora is a strip slum

I like some of the ethnic restaurants, but Aurora is mostly miles and miles of a random, disorganized assortment of various small businesses. Of course they don't want to pay taxes for anything except putting more cars on Aurora. It's a living monument to the uncontrolled, unplanned development-by-automobile. God help you if you're on foot there. You may have to detour half a mile to cross Aurora at a stop light. Oh, you think you're going to cross Aurora between stoplights? I'll alert your family to start planning your memorial service.
