Your town sounds a bit like my hometown, Diana. Well, until the oil started sprouting up everywhere. There is a lot of work in the oil field and a lot of people have been moving to town because of it. We have two cities just under an hour away, and both of them are huge with oil too but I think a lot of young families like the small-town feel and want to raise their kids there, and actually a lot of high school students who don't want to go to college just stick around home and fall into the oil industry, so there's still quite a crowd of young people there.
A new little subdivision was built in our town about 10 years ago and it seems everytime I go home there are more houses there. Some of the houses are GORGEOUS, and none have had any problem selling.
