Posted earlier. The psychiatric damage of suburban isolationism can’t be overstated. Cities come with their issues — but school shootings, Tyler Robinson, and suicides hail mostly from elsewhere. Look at where Utah falls on the US suicide map

Deaths per 100,000 population are age-adjusted to the 2000 U.S. standard population.

Homelessness, mental illness and drug addition thrive in big cities. And long rap sheets.

Suicides typically deal with two subjects: relationships or income streams.

So based on this information, it would appear the best places to live in America are California, New York, New Jersey, Maryland, DC, and a few New England states.

See, if any other Freepers weigh in on this, and if they themselves would be motivated to move to of these areas, for the quality of life indicated by this map.

Explain why New York state (and Mass., and NJ, and CT and RI) which has massive suburbs, doesn’t suffer from “suburban isolationism”?

And Maryland? And California?

You might want to rethink your theory.
