Crashed St. George economy hoping for revival

The city of St. George is starting to look like a ghost town. Houses are boarded up and the large school building is nearly empty. Like neighboring St. Paul, the island’s economy was hit hard when the Opilio Crab Stock crashed in 1999. But residents are hoping new economic development projects can help bring the town back to life.
