Terrible schools, not enough jobs, bad transportation systems, less culture, more poverty, more peer pressure. Instead of raising a kid in a rural area you can just feed them some lead paint chips and rank up a mess of credit card debt in their name, be a lot less devastating.
I agree on all points, but I don’t think it’s so cut and dry, nevermind that a lot of those things can affect cities and suburbia, when I see the lives my little cousins live I feel a little bad for them. Granted, they’re in one of the most violent cities on Earth so not a great example.
Sidenote: Transportation will vary a lot from place to place, as a kid my friends and I would ride all over town with bikes but I understand some towns (in the US specially) are highways with houses and a mall next to it.
You’re gonna have to expand on that cause being from a small town I don’t see what you mean.
