obviously the town has a reputation if people are moving out AND not choosing to move in.
The high mortality rate can't help either.
True but in S1-2 there were other human villains who at least got their comeuppance in some way
Yeah, but they were always throw-away comments at the end of the episode about how some court found them guilty in 5 minutes even though any case that looked like that would be tied up in appeals for years... Eh. I actually kind of prefer that they just don't mention it.
I still wonder if that was part of the point - S4 is very transitional, entering a more adult world outside of high school, and the boundaries between good/evil continue to become more fuzzy - Willow experimenting with darker magics, Riley with Maggie's chip in his heart, etc - so as much as you're probably right that it was tossed off for a laugh by the writers, it still somehow fits in the season.

Oh, absolutely!
