I understand them feels. That is exactly what mine looks like.

If you have a downtown area, that's usually where all the activities are. My house has a gym and 1 pokestop at a children's school, but the downtown area is full of pokestops and is so popular I'll regularly see 20-30 players walking around, luring constantly and fighting over the gym that's there. Other towns' downtown areas have shown the same type of activity from my experience.
