Family, friends, culture, lack of means to communicate? Just because some yearn for something in a area does not mean they want to live in the area. Personally I yearn for programming meetups, but everytime I look in my area all is PHP/webdev based; or a hour drive to a major city. All because I want to live close to my family, friends and speak my mother tongue.
