Overall, a multitude of arrangements and amenities changed the city's landscape in aforementioned fifty-year period. In 1970 the pueblo consisted on a wide forest landscape with a large farmland and only few constructions especially 2 houses and one shop.

Even though, we can still notice some green spaces from the past forest, especially a band of Greenland alongside- the west town. To conclude, the town of springer changed drastically from 1970 to nowadays, moving from a rural to an urban area.
