Seamus28261ParticipantI’ve traveled through the Midwest and the South quite a bit lately. I found a lot to like in those areas. In many ways, I prefer them to my own large and culturally rich city. The people are unbelievably nice and courteous. They are far more down-to-earth and far less cynical, which was refreshing coming from a city where nobody seems real. I was amazed how little money-status seemed to matter. Even the richest people sat alongside the poorest. There is precious little class integration here. Even the race angle, which I expected, wasn’t as bad as I thought. Blacks, Mexicans and whites are far more likely to actually live and work together over there than in our own segregated cities and suburbs. Nothing’s perfect, though. I think the Midwest has a self-esteem problem regarding big city people. They are also quite naive in some ways, and the political conservatism there bothers me. But I definitely think it would be a great place to retire to and raise kids in.
