Actually I don't think either of you are accurate. In the last year or two there have been dozens and dozens -- maybe a hundred -- new families that have come here, because of the Catholic community, but also because the cost of living, especially housing, is cheaper than almost anywhere else. You will find a few curmudgeons anywhere who are totally closed, but generally we are a welcoming bunch. And half the Catholic talking heads of the world make their way through here at some point, so it's not like we don't mix with the outside world -- lol.

Recently Matt Fradd said something like (I don't remember precisely) 110 families had moved to Steubenville last year to be part of the Catholic subculture there.

It's significant. Definitely not every new family is Catholic. But I'd venture to say probably most are.
