I am still adjusting to my status of HoH, and am wondering if what I see with other groups carries over to the Deaf community.
This is mostly towards those that use ASL.. (not to leave orals out, you can answer too)..
Do you find yourself preferring stores or shops that have one or more employees’ that use ASL?
Will you drive out of your way to shop at places that the customers, for the most part, are all signing?
When looking where to buy a house, does the number of other signer’s in the neighborhood play a part in it, or the distance to a school for the D/deaf?
Does your town have a centralized area where the majority of the stores/restaurants/venues are all targeted or based on sign? (Think “little China” or “little Mexico”)
I know this may sound silly, but as someone that is struggling to find others of the Deaf community in my own town, I was wondering if others have wondered about some of these..
