What I'm saying is that having high-speed Internet is not the same as being close to culture. It also doesn't put pressure on the corrupt sheriff to straighten out or insist that the school district provide an actual education for the schoolkids. For all that you need a critical mass of interested people.
- ghaff 8y agoIf you're talking public schools, they actually tend to be pretty bad based on standard metrics in even elite metros like New York City. And major cities probably have more explicit corruption than small towns. see Chicago historically. That said, I don't really disagree with your basic point. To see plays, orchestra, etc. you need to be at least within an hour or so of either a city or a university town.
- state_less 8y agoA high-speed internet connection can and hopefully more so in the future, put you close to nature. All I meant to say is that working remotely doesn't necessarily imply needing or wanting a more cultured city. It depends on what a person values. Some of the most moving times of my life have been out in nature.
