It depends on the weather, the band, and whether it is Vendor night. And most importantly, the time of the year. Currently there are tons of renters and visitors, and a lot of seasonal residents haven't yet left for the north. Also, Billiethkid's post about new residents is very valid. I've noticed that the demographic of the Squares seems very, very young. (That's not a complaint, I don't mind at all). There are many children, teenagers and young adults. I guess the excitement attracts visitors and people from the surrounding areas.

And of course newbies are getting younger and younger. Oh no, it's me, I'm just getting older and older.
