In a California town called Cool, gentrification means a Dollar General store
, a designation that helped locals who sued the developer and county, saying the store would destroy the character of Georgetown.
Adams attended a one-room schoolhouse in Cool in the 1940s. She cherishes memories of those simpler times, when the teacher would take students outside to pick wildflowers. Back then, Cool didn’t even have a stop sign. Borba’s shop is across the street from the site of the proposed Dollar General, which, she fears, would drive her out of business.
