Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77996178 If you live within a 10 minute drive of a professional sports team and multiple colleges/universities, you're not living in a rural area. A smaller city and its locale is rural. Small cities are cities. They're hubs of activity. If you want to live in a small city, that's fine. But they aren't rural by the very definition of what rural means. Many people live in one area but travel to work in a different one. Yes, they go from their "rural" suburb to a city or at least a more developed suburb where there's work. When places are too far for that sort of commute, people generally leave due to lack of opportunity. There are a lot of rural (small town) areas where high paying jobs are to be found that also have a low cost of living. Additionally, people in the medical field can work in hospitals virtually anywhere. The same applies to many other occupations, especially ones which require travel. Jobs in medicine are in demand literally everywhere in the country. Rural towns in the middle of nowhere are at a distinct disadvantage for recruitment because of that. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77996178 If there is no economic wellspring nearby then there will be little economic opportunities. If there is then there will be opportunities. According to you, all rural areas are the same when the fact is that MOST METRO AREAS are alike. Metro areas are more alike than dislike because they're cities, and cities are hubs for commerce, which means they have diverse job prospects and greater overall prosperity than the average rural area. That's not an American thing, that's an everything in the world thing. It's why people moved to cities 8000 years ago to begin with. RURAL AREAS VARY GREATLY. Rural areas vary in geography and demography, but with very few exceptions of areas where the uber rich invested heavily, most of them are poor. Because if they had economic opportunity, people would move to them, and they'd cease to be rural. |

Hitler was into art, painting, museums and the opera. He was also a big supporter of animal rights. Or his version of pro-BLM, anti-C02 or pro-soy boy-ism. His government even enacted laws that required German restaurants handle and prepare lobsters in a supposedly humane way. Hitler also disliked Christianity but admired Islam. He thought the former was a religion for "old women," but judged Islam as being bold and fearless. He also adapted most of the principles of left-leaning socialism or Communism to his government. Hitler was the ultimate urban progressive. |

A smaller city and its locale is rural. I don't know of anyone who would believe that living in a suburb of a large city or within ten or even twenty miles of a sports team could be considered as rural. As has been pointed out, you repeatedly over and over equate rural areas as being the same when in fact it is the cities which are more alike. ANY rural area can be prosperous if it has an economic "wellspring". If the area does not then it will need one nearby in order to prosper economically. You keep claiming that all the rural areas are the same when that is simply false. |

Some of them if you can even call them "communities" are over run with crank addicts, alcoholics, rampant black on white and white on black racism. I know this isn't the same everywhere but I'm getting so friggin tired of these "THIS IS HOW ALL THIS IS AND THIS IS HOW ALL THAT IS" type threads. Libs and conservatives please have a brain and get off the partisan heroin. |

Your fantasies of being self-sufficient and completely insulated from the effects of what happens in the cities is really just that - fantasies. How about that dollar bill you have in your pocket? How much do you think that'll be worth without the economic output of those cities sustaining that dollar's purchasing power? You think you're some sort of Jim Bridger-type mountain man, when really you're more like the Donner party. |

You know that when fracking took off in North Dakota, people were paying San Francisco-level rent to live there, right? I already explained that Gary,IN or any other place would need a "wellspring" so apparently you can't comprehend very well. That does not change the fact that most cities are more alike while rural areas vary greatly. Anybody with half a brain knows that if there are good paying jobs then people will show up. Also, what the hell does fracking have to do with rural America as it is very limited? That just disproves your line of thought about everything being the same. The larger the industry the more jobs and housing needed are no mystery. That doesn't mean that such things explode like fracking. Most simply do not. The very simple fact is that rural areas vary greatly while cities are more alike. I know that in my state that if you start adding the numbers it is clear that the crime rates in cites are higher than the countryside, that is per capita and includes violent crimes. The reason for this is that all vices are interrelated and so the social ills accumulate as they have a symbiotic relationship (i.e. Las Vegas - Sin City). |
