Would you rather hear about being too poor to go anywhere else? I'm from Indiana, lived there until I was 35 and family still lives there.
"Too tired" is an apt descriptor, though. "Too Poor" or not having opportunities is generally good too, but you likely wouldn't see all of that while driving through. Most people just live there because they were born there and their lives are there. "why would you move here??" isn't an unusual question.
I feel like that is a valid view from someone who lives there but, if you aren't from a given place, I'm not interested in your opinion. Also, "why would you move here?", how many places on Earth meet that criteria?
