Demographics darken credit outlook for rural America

The educated urban diverse ares of the country are growing , while the poorly educated flyover portions of the county continue to plunge downward


DALLAS – A vicious cycle of aging populations, urban migration, job losses and falling revenues darkens the credit outlook for hundreds of rural counties that have generally failed to recover from the Great Recession, according to recent research.

A report last week from Moody’s Investors Service cited “troubling economic and demographic trends impacting the rural parts of America that emerged during the recession and have not only failed to recover, but appear to be worsening.”

More bad news may be coming as the U.S. launches a global trade war, the report said.

“Tariffs imposed by the Trump administration will likely reduce rural manufacturing employment and hurt the agricultural sector, which would negatively affect local government tax revenue,” the report said. “Additionally, recently enacted tax cuts are unlikely to stimulate widespread economic growth in rural America because rural areas are still at a disadvantage in competing for new investment, given their shrinking working-age population and an unreliable pipeline of future employees.”

Why rural counties are dying in America

(very good graphics on this one)

The outlook: The 2020 census is likely to show the extent of this drastic trend. "Barring a significant reversal in the next few years," Richard Fry of the Pew Research Center tells Axios, "the share of the population living in rural counties will be less than it was in 2010 ... Rural clout in Congress and the electoral college will be diminished."

In fairness, rural, fly-over Americans perform a valued service in growing food.

If the motherfuckers just stuck to that, all of us, including they themselves, would be much better off.
 
California produces about half of that food

If the urban blacks would quit producing so many bastard children, we'd all be fine.

More of yours on welfare than "them" my African banjo playing friend. You're now on the menu like they've always been. To the aristocracy, you're all the same, you and them black folk.
 
"In about 20 years, half the population will live in eight states"

"Eight states will have just under half of the total population of the country, 49.5 percent, according to the Weldon Cooper Center’s estimate. The next eight most populous states will account for an additional fifth of the population, up to 69.2 percent — meaning that the 16 most populous states will be home to about 70 percent of Americans."
