The effect on the community is going to be huge. Likely a number of the families that lost their child are going to leave the town for good. In 2021 there was 2300 people living there. I have been there, a nice town to raise young kids, but not a lot to do for teenagers and nowhere to go to escape bullying and not fitting in.
