I wouldnt build a deaf city but a deaf community. Similar concept of china town in San Fransico, California if any know what I am talking about. Its an excellent example of what we could develop into.
Since I have studied Marvin Miller's concept of deaf town, I would recommend to change the concept of deaf town into a deaf community in a large town.
Indianpolis is a good place. It will take a lot time to develop a deaf community.
Deaf411 research will be more likely to determine where the most deaf friendly. Then from there, we can determine if its worth to build a deaf community in the area.
I do have an idea of South St. Paul, Minnesota as one ideal location. Its cheap right now, and if we focus a lot deaf investors into the area. Continue to work on the project until we dominate the area. Then we can consider changing the zone into a place of our own. Then develop zone of office for CSD of Minnesota to move into. For CSDVRS's call center or any VRS call center. I only said CSDRS because of CSD's current office is next to CSDVRS call center. Then ask Harris Communication as its head quarter in Edina Prarie, Minnesota to move into deaf community. Then we can have new project to develop condo based for deaf Senior Citzens to move in. Then community center for education such as CSD's Adult Basic Education. Then develop HUD or section 8 for low function deaf. Then open for more people to move their business to the area.
Maybe ask more deaf business to develop in the area. Such as theater with full closed caption and museum. Continue to add new feature every 2 years.
That the concept I am proposing to Marvin Miller. Currently in Minneapolis, Minnesota have over 100 headquarters such as Best Buy, Target, 3M (soon leaving), Spark hearing aid company, etc... There are unlimited job opportunities. We can encourage CSD headquarter to move to the area. It will create a strong presence again. NAD can put one of their office in the area as they already have good presence in Silver Spring, Maryland. Harris Communication to relocate into deaf community. Their location sucks as its out of bus line and many uneducated foreigners unable to visit Harris Communication due to no bus line.
So if we based our community within a job opportunities in metro area, we have better chance of survival developing a deaf community based. Full features and technologies.
I have plenty of ideas of how to develop it. One day, will make it more practical. Its matter of when.
Oh one more thing... Marvin Miller has great idea but he based his one good job opportunity within CSD's headquarter which its laid off thousand employee. Most of them migrated to Minneapolis area for many job opportunities. So that why i think Minneapolis is one of potential area for create a deaf community zone.
