Some thoughts in reference to the quote, “…while 80% of Americans live in urban areas, only 12% said they want to live there. Asked where they would live if they had their choice, the top response was a rural area.”

I would imagine the large majority of those who live in urban areas (but don’t really want to) may feel trapped there because of economics/jobs or medical reasons.

I keenly understand the medical reasons, because rural communities don’t have the pull to attract top-notch medical professionals that cities do. Almost every time that I have sought medical care in a rural facility, I am reminded why the medical industry is one of the leading causes of death in America. I am pretty sure the statistics are far worse in the rurals than in the cities.

Even so, I would rather die in my wilderness area than in a city…
