Totnes, Devon. What's the deal? What am I missing?

Lived there for a few months, 95% of the people living there are hippies, they believe all the hippy stuff etc.
You can sell all sorts of rubbish over there if it's 'organic' or 'home-made'.
It's a reasonably pleasant place to live/quiet if not expensive for what it is.
I remember walking through the town one day & some woman, who i reckon had to either be off her cake on something, or was drunk/homeless, was selling 'gong showers' for £4.50 a go.
I did wonder what it was, so hung around, someone came along, gave her the money & she proceeded to walk around them hitting a gong, odd indeed!

We call em 'TQ9ers' down here.
Most people who are Totnes born and bred are lovely in my experience. What makes it a bit of an odd place is the wealthy dropouts who accumulate there and give gong showers, invent the Totnes pound (a local currency for local people), put 'twinned with Narnia' on the town sign and all the rest of it.
They're a bit cliquey and 'normal' Devonians think they're a set of t
