This is a complaint with all forms of migration where someone seeks to escape their bad living conditions.
Generally those conditions are caused by the people who live in them - their culture and ways of thinking - even if they don't understand or can't acknowledge how.
Many people want to escape the consequences of their own beliefs, but don't want to give up the beliefs themselves.
Another example of, "You're not stuck in traffic, you are traffic."

- lazide 4y agoI think it's more that they're complaining that when everyone moves out to the sticks to be 'somewhere less crowded' - that place becomes crowded. Or at least more so. And that the reason why the original place was so crowded is because people like them wanted to all be there, and the politics and other things there are negatively perceived by the people who DIDN'T move there. Also, when everyone all the sudden starts buying homes in a previously not in demand are, the homes start getting difficult to afford, as demand is increasing. Especially for people who have been living there awhile already, and don't have the cash that the folks leaving the previously crowded areas have. I've personally seen this same cycle happen 3 times in California (and PNW/Texas).
