seems like many are at a tipping point, where they have a very large aging boomer population, with few people to replace them and nobody moving in. will there just be ghost towns spread across the rust belt, etc.

"collapse" isn't really the right concept. they tend to die quietly. properties and stuff gradually gets abandoned. there is no dramatic implosion; there is just a gradual decline and dropping-off. certain roads that don't have enough residents anymore are turned to gravel to save maintenance costs, that sort of thing. certain power lines might not ever get repaired if a storm brings them down. there's just no demand.

Cr. It's a sad slow death. Another big problem is the closure of rural hospitals. Many of these areas will be an hour or more from an ER.

cities are already too big and promote atomized, hedonistic lifestyles that create population crashes. add in the fact that a violent underclass makes them unappealing to all but the top decile of earners and the obstacles to neo-urbanism are tall, perhaps insurmountable.

Lol this is ridiculous. Medical expenses are kept artificially high by government subsidization of research and our egalitarian views toward treatment. "Oh look! A pill that raises treatment effectiveness from 84% to 87% for some patients! And it only costs 73x the price of the old pill from 1958! Time to adopt a new gold-standard for use in every hospital in America!"

Quit developing that horseshit.

Nah, it's only a matter of time before either terrorists get nukes or NK/Iran starts nukin'.

After 2 or 3 major cities get hit, there'll be a mass exodus from all cities and a reruralization of the nation.

They hit rock bottom i'd say around 3-4 years ago. Things are looking up now, I have noticed a lot of people are moving back to these areas for the low cost of living and lack of traffic, crime etc. as more people get the ability to work remotely this will increase

Lots of gen xers who are fleeing cities now that their kids are old enough for public school

Some rural towns will be saved by the self driving car when it occurs. But probably only those within a 90 mile drives of a tertiary city. But most will slowly fade away, while nature reclaims the buildings. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

I'm from a small town so I find it sad. But GC waits for no man.

Yea there is a quote somewhere that is basically "we should be as efficient as needed but no more; all the beauty in humanity - family, home, art, are all inefficient" or something along those lines. I think that applies to rural America, family farms, etc.
