Given all the disasters that happened from 2011 on, what has happened to small towns in US and the rest of the world? I'd say there are a lot of ghost towns out there. Look at it this way, this is primarily for the US, there is VITAS. Now it didn't hit here as hard as it did in other less advanced countries but it's still a factor. There is the crash of '29. All of the various riots brought about by Goblinization and lack of resources. Then there is the war and Ghost Dance. Also keep in mind all the meta critters running around. Some of them are pretty tough. How would these things be addressed?
Well, we all move to bigger cities that have the resources and man power to keep us safe. So even with the population dropping the major cities are going to have an increase and leave a lot of small towns empty. Really look at all the small towns with populations under 10k. How would these communities survive all of that? Now I'm sure that some could, but I bet most wouldn't. Notes and comments, please. Thanos |
