Human Factors
During descent for landing at I19; at approximately 2500 ft MSL over populated area; I observed a small black dot at my same altitude; and 1 o'clock from my position. I banked slight left to avoid the object. As I passed the object; I observed what appeared to be a stationary drone of the hobby store variety. I felt this to be a very dangerous activity on the part of the drone operator that could easily have ended in loss of life or severe damage to the aircraft if I had not seen it in time to maneuver away.
PA28 pilot reported a NMAC with a UAV on approach to I19.
