I’ve lived in two of the five largest cities, and while I’m not back in my specific small town, I have moved back to a small town with my wife and children and cannot imagine a better conclusion. If you’re already in a small town, never leave. If you’ve already left, go back asap. Even if youre not blue-collar or handy or can participate in the local economy, in this day and age of digital higher education and remote work, you don’t have to relocate to do anything you want to do professionally in that small town.

If you’re a young guy who grew up in rural, small-town America and are planning an escape to the big city…listen to me. There is nothing out there for you. You already have everything that you need. I’ve seen it all- the endless sea of concrete, the shimmering midnight lights and the evening skyline- and there was nothing to be found in any of it.

Living in a big demographic center will eventually poison your soul and make your heart sick. I made my escape and before all was said and done, I wanted nothing more than to go home. But once you leave, that long journey between you and home turns from simple physical distance into the impassible barrier of time. The miles between you become years- and those years become decades. Before you know it, ”home“ no longer exists the way it did before and nothing is the same.

Find yourself a moral small-town woman to have children with and either buy a piece of land or build nearby your family. It may not seem like it now- with your whole life ahead of you- but your lifespan is actually very short and it will pass you by before you know it. Spend what time you have with the people you love and work hard to bolster your rural community (paradise) against the nationwide demographic invasion by hordes of city-dwelling colonizers.

You have a duty to protect it. Because those big-city cockroaches have already ruined their home states and now they want what belongs to YOU- they’re taking over your rural real estate markets and transforming your country paradise into insect colonies full of strip-malls, condominiums and apartments for their fellow bug people. Protect what matters. Spend the time that you have wisely and be grateful for every single open country road and every dark, crystal-clear night sky full of stars.
