Before Paradise became a booming new residential area, hillbillys (some, not all) used to live up there in the woods. The trouble that is caused in Paradise comes mostly from the offspring of these hillbillys.

Paradise is not fit to live in! What a town of scum and villainy. Who would move there to live?
