Same here.

The Town flies several flags year round and has one on every downtown streetlight pole during summer months.
Very few if any on multi family houses, but single family houses it's about one in 4.

A reminder that on Memorial Day, the flag should be flown at half staff until noon....

Mine too!  I have retired two flags since I bought the house 5 years ago, one thing I never have a hard time convincing the wife to spend money on.

I have 2 flying - US and USMC (for my son).

I'm guessing the ex-Navy guy a few doors over will throw up a Navy something or other once he sees the USMC flag flying. Yeah, he is that "keep up with the Joneses". Put in a flag pole after the neighbor to the south put one in.

I don't have a pole, so they fly from wooden staffs stuck into the rail holes in the back of the pickup, US flag to the right as you look down the drive to the street.

I counted about 25 out of the 200 homes in my little piece of America...not a great showing considering at 55 I'm one of the "hot young studs" of the neighborhood!  I expect I'll see more tomorrow...
