"Far be it from me to judge other peoples' choices."
"...you seriously need to get some perspective."
you are definitely judging other peoples' choices. that's not a bad thing, but own up to it.
i have a good reason for not living in 'flyover country'. when i was growing up there, i had direct encounters with racist individuals on a regular basis. i have not had those encounters in nyc (i also lived in san francisco and had racist interactions there).
i like walking around people that don't look at me funny. rent in nyc is the best $2000/month i spend.
