disjointed community.

The neighbourhood consists of the old core residents and newcomers. The old core are a few families who have lived here for generations and their followers. This old core dominates the administration and is chest-thumpingly present. The newcomers are not involved in anything and are mostly ignored if they have a different opinion from the old core.
