“driving the humans into narrow corridors and cities.”
At 20,000, I’m living in the biggest town I’ve ever permanently lived in. I don’t like it. Cities go against human nature IMHO.
I agree. The little town nearby has grown with the oil boom to 45,000 by some estimates. It happened fast, and that comes with a host of problems too. I’m keeping my eye out for a place farther out in the weeds to retire to for reasonable money. Tough to leave an area after being solidly established there, though.
