Contact Zones and Culture

In Burlington, the most identifiable contact zone would be Church Street. Individuals through the community, the state, and god knows wherever else, come to Church Street. Burlington attracts many tourists and residents in the surrounding areas to come for a day and shop, grab a bite to eat, and to see some extremely "interesting" people. Church Street is open to all, and allows individuals from all social, economic, and ethnic classes to gather together. Another contact zone located here in Burlington would be the waterfront area next to the aquarium. College students, families, even hobo's can enjoy the scenery from the beautiful body of water that our community is located around. It is open for all to enjoy and embrace, and is something that can bring people together from all walks of like.
