This town is called little Bavaria. I recommend to all you Germans reading this to pay a visit to this town. This town used to thrive on loggong and business brought by the advent of the railroad. However once the trees became scarce, the town found itself in a deep depression. Not knowing what to do, the town aldermen got together and came up with the controversial idea of remodeling the town after the bavarian theme. In the end, everyone ended up remodeling their building like a chalet without having to be forced to do it. Street names are in german and you can also hear german music playing all day long.
