You will never have to pay to be listed as a top neighbor. Period. That important detail clarified, let's discuss how we arrive at two "top neighbors" for a given region:
Localism is a bustling collection of hyper-local communities, and the top neighbors should reflect those members who are most active. When ranking users in a given region, several factors are considered. To get your foot in the proverbial door, you need to have posted at least one "Localism" article or photo for the region.
The very best way to quickly rise to #1 is to post high-quality local content. Keeping a steady strem of incoming posts and photos will massively tilt the scales in your favor.
What doesn't count toward the top neighbor ranking? ActiveRain points and community sponsorships. The top neighbor spots will always go to the most active members in a region. We want to create a level playing field that encourages the growth of communities — talent and dedication are required to win the day.
Tuesday, September 7, 2010 marks the opening of the new school year here in Prince William County. While many of the school commuters are seasoned veterans there is a group of "newbies" every year. However, they all deserve your respect and consideration. The school zone speed limit lights have been on this week to remind us of the upcoming beginning of the school year.
The law requires you to stop behind a school bus when their red lights flash.
School crossing guards will be out in full force every morning and afternoon at critical intersections. They are there for one reason only - it is to protect our youngest citizens as they walk to and from school. Obey their commands.
Be advised Prince William County police officers do monitor traffic regularly at school zones on a rotating basis.

The Prince William County Fair on Rt 234 in Manassas is the largest county fair in Virginia. There are exhibits, competitions, amusement rides for kids and adults, carnival games of chance, food, displays and entertainment to satisfy just about every interest. My husband and I have been attending the Prince William County Fair for years and plan to this year as well.
I hope I have the opportunity to renew a friendship I made last year.
There will be musical entertainment at various venues throughout the fairgrounds. As a farmer's daughter I really enjoyed listening to country music in front of the milking station in the dairy barn. I hope they are back this year
