What else should people know about your site:
The Village Thinker is the brainchild of a local journalist who is also an involved local resident. Originally founded to report on violent crime news that was not being printed in the local daily newspaper, in order to inform neighbors and business owners in affected areas, it has grown into a community resource that provides hyperlocal event coverage, investigative journalism, and information on "the rest of the story".
