Which would you rather live in if it's all you could afford, a "ghetto" or a small town out no where?

A ghetto. I'm not made for the small town where you have to drive like, 10 miles to the nearest mall.

In some small towns you have to drive a lot more than 10 miles to the nearest mall. Imagine having to drive 60 miles.

If Ghetto means just living among poor people and dirty streets plus noisy neighbors I'll pick Ghetto.

But if Ghetto also means I have to worry about my personal safty every time I'm out on the street,
and worry about breaking in when I'm not home then Small Town any day.

Yes! One of our classmates came from North Dakota. She mentioned the closest mall was like 80 miles. In some areas, the rate is as high as 300. Be thankful we don't live in the rural places?

So I guess between those 2, I have to choose ghettos?
