Abstract:

Despite its explosive population and job growth, Winterville retains its small-town charm and value for local traditions. Sam Jones, a fourth-generation barbecue business owner, reflects the town’s value for local traditions. Winterville’s small-town charm has generated its reputation as a “safe clean-cut place to settle down.”
