What Is There Too Much of In Essex? Readers Respond

ESSEX, MD--Moderation is key. While one bank is helpful, six is just a waste of space, and Patch Readers agree that any crime is too much crime.

We asked you what there is too much of in your town- whether it be traffic, businesses, or crime-related.

Here’s what Patch Readers said they could do without in Essex:

• “Empty store fronts”
• “Pawn shops and bail bonds.”
• “$ Stores and Liquor Stores”
• “crime”
• “Pizza and sub shops”
• “Drug activity and robberies”
• “Auto zone type stores”
• “Cockroaches”
• “Bars”
