Here's one of the very few areas in which (based on past postings) I safely think Warszawa & I can agree: jettisoning Columbus Day in favor of Indigenous Peoples' Day.

Yeah, it's weird. New England in particular is the richest region of the country with the best schools, most educated populations, healthiest people.. yet people pick up sticks and move to a state where the schools are renowned for being exceptionally bad and every other person is severely obese.
Why, just why. I can't think of any other country in the world where people are actually moving away from the wealthiest regions to the poorest.
Everyone in New England isn't rich, it's possible to achieve a better quality of life elsewhere. People aren't leaving in droves for a better climate alone.
And, you know, the rampant crime, the extreme inequality, the corruption, the high poverty..
Although credit where credit is due, somewhere like Medellín has seen its murder rate fall to lower levels than cities like Detroit and New Orleans.
The US has inequality comparable to Latin America, but the average income is much higher. I'd rather have below average income in the US than above average income in South America
That's the first google suggestion autocomplete for "[insert state x] is too" for me
