I work for a certain municipality in NH, so that is my concentration at the moment.

Seems like there's a societal trend to making cities and towns more walkable. I'm excited for the future if that's so.

Are you able to make places that cater more to the young adult population? Like other cities have special gymnastics places and trampoline parks and stuff like that but the demographic is for older people. Here, all those places are only for little kids I’ve noticed but I’m 23 and I want to go to those too

Not directly. Municipalities can zone for, even incentivize with tax breaks the sort of amenities you are talking about, but it would take a private developer to build it. Unless of course it was a municipal project, but then the tax payers would foot the bill. You think NH's aging population would want to pay for a trampoline park? Throw in a shuffleboard court and you might have a chance...

The problem with a lot of these ideas is they take money.

NH has none.
