I'm not talking about places out in the middle of nowhere. I am simply talking about medium to small size red cities/towns as opposed to very large blue ones.You may have a McMansion but the best restaurant within an hour is an Applebees, your standard of living isn’t as good as it seems.
The objective fact is that Democratic areas have much more economic output than Republican ones.
It is all relative when it comes to standard of living vs income. There are 4 Starbucks within a 5 mile radius of my home. I have some privacy, Payless taxes, and have a much nicer home than those who live in large Urban areas with similar or even higher incomes. In my particular area, the average income is also significantly higher than average, so we have the best of all worlds.
