content: People should move to wherever they perform best. If you are great at farming, move to the country. If you are talented at working in an office position, move to the city.  It shouldn't be a matter of principle. I see way too many people staying in California cities because they somehow think they can "save" them. Likewise I see many who feel obligated to move to the country when they don't know the first thing about working a farm. Be realistic.
