All members of the family generally participate in this activity. Thus, the families develop strong, united relationships. Unitedville is in closer proximity to San Ignacio, as opposed to Belmopan, and as such the villagers shop and recreate in that town rather than in the capital.

Recently, there is an increasing trend in the number of younger members of the village engaged in the fields of construction and the public service.
