The Problem with Youngstown and why it is still a dark place for Jews

Youngstown is a great town and don't get me wrong, but there is no daily minyan at their synagogue. I would even go once every few months if there was to help out. That said, no place on earth that exists as a community is right for a True Orthodox Jewish population if there is not DAILY MINYAN. I think this is true of a lot of places now remaining in Europe as well, but fortunately, this can indeed be changed and that is of course my hope in the future.
Save to say Youngstown is a great American Community. I would visit and have a good time there. The Younstown State University even has a Jewish Studied program now and that is great. So lets get some more orthodox Jews to go to Youngstown or better yet, change the affiliation of the reform and conservative Jews who already live there and make the keep a daily true Orthodox Minyan. Believe it or not, that changes the entire spirit of the vicinity and it will be a true home to the Jewish people as well. Thanks.
