We've been hearing a lot of rumors about what's being built here.

There are a lot of things that are running through my mind - apartments, condos? New houses could be built there, but it's a busy place and usually, cars lined up with traffic lights down each way from it.

I've heard apartments, a strip mall, and a storage place. Have you heard the same?

Now, I realize the traffic lights going north is at the Santander Bank in Pine Beach and the other light going south is at the Wawa. It's still so sad to see Blackbeard's gone. This area is right next to the abandoned Blackbeard's Cave:

So we ask the question now, what do we need in Bayville. I feel we really do need a great, family restaurant. We really need a great place for kids, something fun for the family. I live in Bayville and I know we need fun stuff, good restaurants, and a couple of "big" stores.

So many emails came in about Bayville's needs and tops on the list was Wegman's, Trader Joe's, Home Depot, and Chick-fil-A. All of those would cause more traffic there but I'd agree with any of those in our town. What would you like to see in Bayville?

This cleared area is right next to the brand-new Der Wunder Weiner location. We've been hearing about this new location for a little bit now. Hopefully, soon they will be opening.

I hope with this cleared location we get something good in Bayville.

LOOK: See how much gasoline cost the year you started driving

To find out more about how has the price of gas changed throughout the years, Stacker ran the numbers on the cost of a gallon of gasoline for each of the last 84 years. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (released in April 2020), we analyzed the average price for a gallon of unleaded regular gasoline from 1976 to 2020 along with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for unleaded regular gasoline from 1937 to 1976, including the absolute and inflation-adjusted prices for each year.

Read on to explore the cost of gas over time and rediscover just how much a gallon was when you first started driving.

LOOK: Here are the 50 best beach towns in America

Every beach town has its share of pluses and minuses, which got us thinking about what makes a beach town the best one to live in. To find out, Stacker consulted data from WalletHub, released June 17, 2020, that compares U.S. beach towns. Ratings are based on six categories: affordability, weather, safety, economy, education and health, and quality of life. The cities ranged in population from 10,000 to 150,000, but they had to have at least one local beach listed on TripAdvisor. Read the full methodology here. From those rankings, we selected the top 50. Readers who live in California and Florida will be unsurprised to learn that many of towns featured here are in one of those two states.

Keep reading to see if your favorite beach town made the cut.
