‘Smart People’ Flee Small Towns _______________________________ I didn't start living until I quit my big job in a big city with big responsibilities, big hours, high pressure and no real life and moved to a small town. I kinda like normal people as neighbors, time to do all the little things, time to enjoy walking in safety, not hearing sirens at all hours, sometimes gunshots, lack of homeless every 10 feet not asking but demanding a handout. I enjoy being able to park my vehicle almost anywhere when shopping and knowing the store clerks name and he or she mine. I have time for sincere interaction with people without being on guard for traps, agendas and trickery. There is no comparison and for sure the headline should read "Smart people flee big cities" The democrats deserve the big cities they've created for themselves. I'll take my small town and hopefully they won't ever come out this way. We're happy as we can be without them.

I like your your way of putting it... and so true it is. I personally prefer a small town to a city (big or small).... but I don't have much an option here (Japan).. They call them 'different' city names, but they are all one huge city here. There is nothing separating the cities here except border markings on a map :p (and that is no exaggeration!
