I hate to admit it, but she’s right about one thing: “small towns are places that smart people escape from, for privacy, for variety, for intellect, for survival”. That’s been my experience.

I think it is closer to: single people leave small towns to find mates, then they flee urban blight to raise families in suburbia or small towns where life is much better. You can get all the intellect you need over the net now.
guess my experience has been different. i live in the Northern VA suburbs of DC and there are tons of professionals who are moving farther out to the shenandoahs and commuting in for the small town life.
