Another light to point for higher wages in rural towns, for one they shouldn't be living like that why are they not brought up yet. The future is coming along with it's risk being poor rural poor the switch to electric cars, lowering fuel use driving up the price, same as a oil crises. Can't afford a EV. Lower education not because they are lazy just that they can't afford a education. And etc, low is low in a time to go up!

"Rural populations have an increased prevalence of cardiovascular disease compared to urban, and rural patients are more likely to be readmitted with HF exacerbations.6,7 Rural patients are also more likely to be uninsured, poor, and chronically ill.8,9 Disparities in morbidity and mortality between metropolitan and rural cardiovascular patients have increased in recent years.9 One proposed explanation is that rural populations have certain behaviors, attitudes, and access challenges that may contribute to their heightened risk of coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction and HF. These include poor adoption of lifestyle habits associated with decreasing heart disease, such as, smoking cessation, low-fat diets, exercise, and increased perception of heart disease risk, especially among older rural women.6,10 Additional factors include limited access to screening services and preventative care, reduced availability of technology and specialists to diagnose and treat heart disease, long travel distances to urban medical centers and limited access to cardiac rehabilitation services." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4241136
"Residents of rural areas in the United States tend to be older and sicker than their urban counterparts. They have higher rates of cigarette smoking, high blood pressure, and obesity. Rural residents report less leisure-time physical activity and lower seatbelt use than their urban counterparts. They also have higher rates of poverty, less access to healthcare, and are less likely to have health insurance." https://www.cdc.gov/ruralhealth/cause-of-death.html
