Entry 5

In Norco, the town’s economy is and has been overwhelmingly stable due to the presence of the Shell Oil and Chemical refineries.The refineries employ enough people to sustain the local businesses. Many of the refinery employees travel from nearby communities. In result, these workers also contribute Norco’s economy. The town businesses give the citizens the bare necessities, meaning mostly food and gas. For any sort of entertainment, like a movie, a Norco resident must go else where. However, the town does offer two bars, the Spillway Bar and Club 99, which are popular spots for Norco residents and refinery workers.
