[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The schools suck and the youth sports scene is a joke unless you live near one of the handful of major cities. Flyover is flyover for a reason; it’s cheap for a reason; everyone with talent flees for a reason; professionals laugh at job offers from there unless it’s doubling their comp. [b]Look at the fastest growing places, then look at the most in-decline places, and you’ll see pretty quickly flyover country is only going to continue sinking.[/b] Which begs the question, why attend college in a place you wouldn’t want to live in afterwards? It’s pointless and hamstrings your kid. Ex. Want to be in politics, go to Georgetown/GW/American/Catholic/Howard — not some random flyover college 800 miles away from DC.[/quote] or....not. https://www.inspectionsupport.com/resources/the-fastest-growing-metropolitan-areas-in-the-u-s/ God, some of ya'll are DUMB dumb.[/quote] Thank you. Saved me the effort of looking this up. People in the DC area are the most parochial people in America. Which is weird, because they usually come from all over the US originally. My theory is that they never looked back once they moved to “the Big City” and they don’t realize how much “flyover country” has changed. [/quote]
