As someone that grew up in the rural midwest and visits family there every year, there's not much rural life has to offer anyone in 2018, including jobs of any type. Let's not romanticize this as Salt of the Earth Folk. In 25 years, where I grew up turned into Methlandia, complete with lowering lifespans, and lowering standards of living.

Either the job left, or if job is still there, there's a lot fewer open slots due to automation. That's just cold facts.
