The controversy around Jason Aldean’s “Try that in a Small Town” got me thinking. What are some things that you wish you could do in a small town that you just can’t?

I was in the mountains, Hendersonville NC I think, trying to find a place to eat after 7 pm on a week day. Was impossible.

Oh man, having grown up in a small town (one stop light, baby!):

Be visibly neurodivergent

Be visibly gender nonconforming

Not have worry about someone at the doctor's office/hospital who knows your family breaking HIPAA

Be able to just be an anonymous person in public, and not Jody-Anne's cousin's kid

To not be reliant on owning a car
