I decided to look up Shermans Zip Code because it is basically the only one I know!
While looking under the zip code look up I came across the section stated big fish small pond.
this section stated:
Upscale, Older w/o Kids
Older, upper-class, college-educated professionals, the members of Big Fish, Small Pond are often among the leading citizens of their small-town communities. These upscale, empty-nesting couples enjoy the trappings of success, including belonging to country clubs, maintaining large investment portfolios, and spending freely on computer technology.
This I can find true in a small section of the community because there are sections that are a little snooty but at the same time the whole without kids part threw me off. Lately it seems like there are nothing but young kids running around EVERYWHERE.
I would say that the section categorized as FAST-TRACK Families would best fit the atmosphere of Sherman.
Upscale, Middle Age w/ Kids
With their upscale incomes, numerous children, and spacious homes, Fast-Track Families are in their prime acquisition years. These middle-aged parents have the disposable income and educated sensibility to want the best for their children. They buy the latest technology with impunity: new computers, DVD players, home theater systems, and video games. They take advantage of their rustic locales by camping, boating, and fishing.
Taking a drive through town this is exactly what you are going to see. Kids running around the neighborhoods with the latest new toys, the families either gathered around the pool or getting the boats ready to go. However you do tend to see this more in the newer neighborhoods (which are now the bigger population) rather then the older neighborhoods where you find the "country casuals" of the town.
I feel that this zip code thing pretty much hit sherman right on the spot!
I looked up sherman and the zip code on other sites such as wikiepida and google but I didn't come up with anything other then their home page or where the latest house for sale is located at

Good! What I found in Springfield was there are different neighborhoods in the same zip code -- like the neighborhoods around St. Joe's and St. Al's on the north end, where a lot of our students come from, are kind of different. And the neighborhood around McClernand school is still in 62702 zip code, and it's very poor. Anyway, I liked what you said about Sherman.
