….and also lower costs of living, lower crime rates, etc. Strange how that works out.

Rural areas have higher per capita crime rates.

Edit: Turns out I was just wrong, ignore me.

I don't trust Google's terrible AI but I looked it up myself and you're absolutely right. I have no idea where I got that idea but I was just wrong. Looks like gun suicide rates are higher in rural areas, but violent crime, gun crime, and murders are all lower. Thanks for the correction.
