Hey, love this idea! First, I keep a little “locals‑only” list of spots that stay true to their roots—like the tiny noodle shop on Maple that’s been family‑run for 30 years, or the pop‑up art alley in the old train yard. When we draw a map, we tag off times when crowds are low so the vibe stays relaxed, and we always suggest buying from the vendors there so the money stays in the neighborhood. And don’t forget the secret rooftop garden on 5th; it’s a quiet oasis that locals love, and it shows that tourism can be a celebration, not a strain, if we give back and keep the pace human.
