The small town of Cody, Nebraska, population 150, might have suffered the fate of many rural communities in America and faded away. But the people of Cody realized a simple trick: build a grocery store and people will come.

Just like it’s take community to raise a child. It takes people to keep a community going. Really love what you did in your town.

There’s a decent amount of recreational activities you can do in these rural regions, especially in the digital age. A lot of people (within the big cities) throughout these recent decades have started to barely go out that much, and just stay home to play on their console or PC.

@oakvillehigh Yeah, I agree with that. America is general is like that. Were all stuck in our boxes glued to our screens. Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and a few others are like this.

Most of the major cities are controlled by the Dems. No wonder people are getting out of cities.

I think these villages will become more attractive in coming years, at the condition that services are available, and that salaries are attractive enough to bring new qualified people, like teachers, doctors, etc

Just a suggestion: why not have some community project: cattle rearing, chicken maybe or fruit orchards. Well, you could be a mini suppliers of fruits , vege, etc to the nearest town or city. Anything that keep people busy, occupied and start living. I grew up watching cowboys and indian movies so why not re-live the old wild west. That is how the true American Dreams started, isn't it not?

grace, when you arrive at the trail, is when you could have given your report on why you have not followed instructions. you wont have internet access, at least that ill be able to respond to. but youll have your sense of direction and your faith in the wild wild west. which is fine, but its not part of your instructions.
