Despite having been around for over 100 years, apparently nothing much happens in this small agricultural community of around 600 people. There seems to be a complete lack of information available on the internet; the Wikipedia entry consists of only a couple of sentences about where it is located and doesn't even give the population. They did come up with a cute tag line for their centennial: "100 years of being Wright".
