That's the thing. Conservatives like to obsess about the problems of cities in liberal areas. But if you judge by the bottom line --by how much people are willing to spend for the privilege of living in an area-- even the worst of the "liberal cities" are viewed as better than the conservative alternatives (urban or rural). When people jabber on the Internet, they're free to make up any old nonsense. But when people have to put their money where their mouths are, you get a sense for what they really think. And they generally think that living in liberal areas is worth paying a premium.

And in liberal Democrat cities, it is all about the free shit.
 
Trump:
Folks just look at California and their fiscal plight, with their sanctuary cities policies, the homelessness ravaging once great neighborhoods, lawless politiians not cooperating with the fine men and women of ICE ,now they're giving free health care to illegals and having American citizens that have to buy their own insurance Pay for it,
this is what this country will look like if Democrats get into power. Millions of illegals pouring over the border from God knows where.

((((MIC DROP)))))

Generally speaking, the flow of funds in the US is from high-earning areas to low-earning ones, especially to highly subsidized areas (e.g., farming communities and places that suck heavily on the federal teat for their military bases, retiree living expenses, and disaster relief). So, the "free shit" is more of a conservative-area thing.

Of the ten states with the highest dependency on that list, nine were Trump states, while the highly urbanized and liberal states, like New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and California, tend to have below-median dependency.

yeah I used to travel a lot for work, been to damn near every city in the country.....so have seen the OKC, Atlanta, Memphis, Dallas/Houston, St Louis, and of course other horror stories like much of Detroit and Chicago. Many many southern/midwestern rural and urban areas are particularly bad and can be quite ghastly, wouldn't care to live in a gated community in any of them......rather live in a dumpster at Cahuenga and Santa Monica blvd
