The American South's relationship with Education and Development

[DigitalDrifter]

I've always said, work in the north, and retire in the south.
Your dollar goes so much further in much of the south, it's amazing.
In much of Texas, for $200k-$300k you can by a mansion compared to the shitty little houses on pathetically small lots in the northeast.
Let the northeast brag all they want about their fine educational establishments, but the cost of living is over the top.

And as a result, you can go to school in texas for 12 years and come out a hillbilly who thinks executions and corporate super PACs are good, marijuana kills people on contact, same sex marriage is the devil, and God created the world in 7 days, and that Abstinence sex education works.

Also, $200,000 or $300,000 is just as much out of the reach of Texans, as $1,500,000 is out of the reach of a Pennsylvanian.

lol

Like I said, work in the north, retire to the south.

Nasa is in the south because of the South's weather being most appropriate for the space rockets, however the engineers are not educated in the South.
The medical care in the south is horrible.

Really? You might look at some of the best medical research hospitals. UAB, Emory, Duke, Vanderbilt, Mayo clinic, Moffit Cancer center ect ect ect

BTW, here is a link to a site ranking the best hospitals. The region with the most hospitals ranked as "best" was the Great Lakes region. The Sunbelt was second. Your vaunted Northeast was third.

"Best, Worst Regions

Geography mattered. Some regions had an abundance of awarded hospitals, while some states had none.

The Great Lakes region had the highest concentration of top-ranked hospitals, based on the 2000 U.S. census. There was one distinguished hospital for every 773,181 residents in that region, which included Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin.

The Sunbelt was a close second. Like the Great Lakes area, it had 72 distinguished hospitals, but the Sunbelt’s larger population meant more patients per hospital. The Sunbelt states were Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North and South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia.

Third place went to the Northeast, with 36 distinguished hospitals. The Northeast included Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington, D.C."
