In Chicago, it is hard to find townies (exceptions include Chinatown and Cabrini Green before it was torn down) considering the size of the city. The further out you go in the Chicago suburbs, you'll start finding townies (Joliet and Zion are prime examples).
Around my Opera House in Oquawka IL, there is hardly anybody but townies. The town is driven by drugs, prostitution, and gambling. Although all three are illegal, they make up the GDP the local economy. It is kind of the city you go to when you have given up on life.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
"I can make a scalpel sing, but that is my gift. The gift is not in my hands, for you see, I can play the notes [on a piano], but I can't make music."
