Which is why my parents were of a few people that were ever able to get out of their town. The twon is so poor that no one can afford to move. My parents had to work summer jobs and such to save up for college and I believe they got a little help from their parents but most don't. Like you said, the opportunity to get out isn't really there.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
