Young people in my town--stay or go?

My town . . . is kinda fucked up.

It's in the middle of nowhere; it has traditionally and currently a very poor population. People talk about getting away, but few actually do. Here's an article which talks about the young people in El Paso foregoing moving out of town for better careers, choosing instead to remain with their families:

Even those that grumble the most, and do manage to escape . . . usually come back. Why? Because of family. Because of the quality of life here, the relaxed pace.

The enchiladas.

Okay . . . my town isn't too bad after all.
