How did we create a society where we can’t afford to live in our own country?

Where abouts, if you don't mind me asking?

I'm an Australian, and the American midwest/countryside is quite appealing to me. (Cities... not so much.)

Between Dallas and Oklahoma City in a small town over an hour from a major interstate.

>small town over an hour from a major interstate.

This is probably why your company can't retain starting grads. Sure, the CoL may be lower, but the vast majority of young grads want something with more hustle and bustle.

Source: I was a young grad who lived & worked in a small town about an hour from the nearest interstate, but moved to a metro area after a year in that area.

Okay for those of us who _aren't_ after a hustle/bustle life, whats the town/county name if that's not too prying a question to ask?
