[indent]The original name for Farmer Hill was Williamboro, a community that was set in the base of a very prosperous mountain. The mountain was strange for having an abnormal amount of different metal resources. It wasn't even considered a town for decades, as it was merely a collection of houses for the miners. They just called it Williamboro for the sake of convenience. As years went by, the families of the miners moved in, and then a community got started. One strong enough to last through the eventual depletion of the mine, as the town switched priorities from mining to farming. The fields of Williamboro were ripe farmland, and that became a majority of the properties in the township. As the decades went by, Williamboro prospered with the small community it had. Before pushing into the 1950s, the township was renamed Farmer Hill because of its large amount of hills, and the large amounts of farmlands. The people of the town are not clever, however, the county remained Williamboro.

It's quite a distance away from anything notable. The one thing that is keeping Farmer Hills afloat:
it's farm exports and its school. Farmer Hills exports [i]tons[/i] of meat and milk that are bought by companies, and other folks to fuel their businesses. As a good 40% of the Williamboro township is farmlands of all kinds. Large empty fields full of grazing cows, and whatnot are a common sight for the citizens of this city. However, the farming industry is slowly dying as the children of the township do not want to pick up where their parents left off, and instead want to find new opportunities in new cities. One thing that is keeping children in Farmer Fields, however, is the Grand Ridge Academy. A nationwide renown college that draws people in from all over.

Due to being a fairly old town, Farmer Field has a fairly old, rustic aesthetic. That is because many of the buildings have not been updated appearance wise. Some have, but they are in the minority. The town itself is fairly small, being a quarter of most large cities. Hell, even the downtown area is basically one long street, instead of spanning several blocks. The rest of the city is either residential areas or businesses. Farmer Hill has plenty of family-run businesses such as hotels, cafes, and auto garages, many of which have been around for decades. Some businesses have moved into the town such as the fast food industry, but they don't have an overwhelming presence in the place. They aren't going to run any mom and pop places out of business. Funnily enough, many of these businesses are operated by college students from Grand Ridge. 

Farmer Hill is divided into three sections (known as "Squares"): Market Square, Mason Square, and Blacksmith Square. Market Square is considered to be the gears that keep the city running, as that is where every official building is (along with many of the businesses). Mason square is where most of the residence is situated. Blacksmith Square is the largest of the three areas and contains the heaviest concentration of farmlands. The township itself is in the shape of a triangle, in fact.

The population of Farmer Hill is fairly high for a small town. It has nearly five thousand people, but a good chunk of the families have been there for a long time. Many are descendants of the very people who started the town. The town is predominantly Caucasian, with a whopping 87% of the population being just that. However, there are other racial groups, such as African Americans, Native Americans, Asians, and Latinos. That is changing as more people move into Farmer Hill. Racism runs deep in the township, but many keep major conflicts free. Other than that, a lot of the people in Farmer Hill are close to each other. 

Farmer Hill was a town of secrets. This is a little-known fact, but Farmer Hill has an [i]incredible[/i] the number of disappearances, and murders. People just going missing in thin air, and sudden unexplained murders. The police either find no leads, say it was an animal, or discover the "perpetrator." Seemingly putting the thoughts at ease. Over time, the township became more and more hushed about this, where they'd just ignore it and continue with their lives. Asking about the murders or disappearances would earn you a suspicious look. 

However, this has changed since the appearance of the "Orange sun" the township has had many brutal murders, and many of its citizens have gone insane. Graffiti is on every surface as the people preach about "Redemption" and cults have arisen of the sun. The weather patterns have fluctuated so much that the township has gone from snow to rain, to bright sunny skies in record time. People have reported monsters coming out of the woods and wreaking havoc on the township. People have been coming to investigate this phenomenon only to find themselves falling under the same effects as the townspeople.[/indent]

The very center of Farmer Hill. A large chunk of the city that is used to operate the place. Standing in the center of it is, of course, City Hall. A large building that is not as grandiose as other buildings, but it is still very big, and picturesque. The building is office after office, after office. There's also the courthouse, the police station, and the fire station. If you want to buy something, this is where you'd get it. With a variety of different stores, you'd find everything you're looking for in Market Square. More importantly, Market Square hosts a massive farmer's market every Saturday morning where goods of all kind are sold. The places that are favored by the youth of Farmer Hill, however, are Arcade Blues (a gaming arcade), Sucre Cafe (A popular cafe near Grand Ridge Academy), and the Top Shelf Bar (One of the best bars in the township). Market Square also has a high residence.[/hider][/indent]

Blacksmith Square is what many people would call the suburban dream. Being the prime residential area, there are miles upon miles of houses of different shapes and sizes, from all ages. Some being newer, and some being old as the city itself! Though, there is a trailer park or two. Blacksmith Square fits the definition of a suburb, most of the houses are spaced out from each. The streets of Blacksmith Square are usually quiet, and quaint, very low activity. However, there are businesses every now and there. Usually a family restaurant, gas station, or corner store.[/hider][/indent]

The largest stretch of Farmer Hill is Mason Square. Which is miles upon miles of farmland are divided among hundreds of different farmers. You can drive for miles it'd be awhile before you hit anything other than farms. These fields are a historic location in Farmer Hill and the only thing that is keeping the town afloat. The primary export from Mason Square is animal meat, mainly chicken and cow meat, with dairy being a secondary export. It is difficult to raise crops so far up in the north, but some vegetables and fruits are exported. Mostly supermarkets and fast food businesses buy them.[/hider][/indent]

Grand Ridge Academy was formerly known as the Williamboro Schoolhouse for a majority of its lifespan. When the mining town became a community with children, they were expected to learn. A man known as Daniel Schmidt came along, and began teaching the children of the community, and preparing the next generations for excellence. As the township grew and developed past mining, there were other, better-equipped schools built for the sole purpose of teaching. The schoolhouse was considered useless, but an important part of Farmer Hills past. In 1910, a wealthy man known as Walter Auer came around and purchased the schoolhouse. Before building a proper building for the schoolhouse. He tried to make it a prestigious school for the nation's elite's children, offering them a place in a quiet community for them to learn, but failed from the start. 

Instead, he changed the schoolhouse to a college to rival the other colleges that were being built. He succeeded, and he built a successful college which was known across the nation as Grand Ridge Academy (or college). This is the one thing that keeps Farmer Hill on the map, as people from all over the nation send their children to Grand Ridge Academy. A college that offers to teach in all degrees, but has a specialty for science, and psychology. 

Grand Ridge Academy is in Market Square, not too far away from City Hall itself. It's a massive building with hundreds of different classrooms offering a variety of subjects. It's split up into four buildings. The main building being the largest, and being at the center of the Academy. This is where all the classrooms and offices are. The other buildings are dorms for the boys, girls, and the teachers. Kept on completely different parts of the academy.

The Academy operates under a two-year system and a very high attendance rate. But, has caused a divide between the community of Farmer Hills, and the Academy. As the community feels the Academy is flooding their town with young and reckless kids, and ruining it.[/hider][/indent]

Mount Ever Reaching is the mountain that is constantly in sight. It's hard to get it out of sight because it's over ten thousand feet in height. It's a massive spike that pierces the skies and is what the township is built on the base upon. Hundreds of years ago, it was considered a mine for valuable metal, but it has been stripped bare, and now just rests there. However, the natives of the town keep away from it because of all the people that mysteriously go missing when they go near it. They actually prohibit entry to the mountain at all and consider it trespassing. Many daredevil mountain climbers and mystery solvers ignore this rule and have gone missing. Thus, the mines have remained unstirred for decades now.[/hider][/indent]
