As has the former abundance of youth-centric spaces. Many such as malls and arcades don’t exist like they used to. Physical game stores (like for Magic: The Gathering) are also drying up as it increasingly becomes harder to sell enough product as maintenance costs rise. And perhaps it’s just me, but after a certain age parks became rather boring even with a friend group. Personally, I feel we need more library awareness and “recreational areas” within libraries. They tend to have a large variance of media, and are typically a safe place to be. However all the libraries in my area tend to lack anywhere to hang out, which I understand due to budgeting constraints, but it’s a shame it’s not easier to provide areas for the more “interesting” media available.
