Big cities are way more expensive. People who live there have almost no kids. Rural and small cities have kept the US population from crashing completely. Big cities are currently dismantling their specialty high schools. I don't think the facts on the ground support that big cities are better for kids.
- kredd 4y ago“People who live there have almost no kids” - that’s just not true and super North America specific. Some personal data points - my entire family was born and raised in city of >3M population, everyone whom I know in Europe with kids live in fairly big cities.
- bobthepanda 4y agoThe European big cities are much smaller than Seoul, which is 26M. Cities in this size range in East Asia all have massive fertility issues (Tokyo, Seoul, Shanghai, Beijing)
