Some don't mind moving... to another rural place. That doesn't really change things of course.
Rural people really are different from urban people. There are probably brain differences here, both conditioned and genetic.
When you are in a city, how do you feel? Do you feel stimulated, energized, excited, enticed, and intrigued? Do you feel nervous, fearful, tense, harassed, endangered, overstimulated, stressed, strangely lonely despite crowds, contaminated by the filth, and vulnerable?
Normal urban people do not own the land they live on and often can not even access all sides of the building. The owner of the land and/or building gets to set rules. Is this perfectly normal or even beneficial? Is it instead a dystopian nightmare without freedom?
Do you think "There are lots of people here, so I'm safe" or "There are lots of people here, so I'd better be wary"?
Do you nap or openly use your phone on a subway? Do you clutch your belongings close, eyeing other passengers as threats, ready for fight or flight?
