The good, is that many people are outwardly warm-hearted, and will go out of their way to help. but that doesn’t necessarily mean that they want to be your friend or even have anything to do with you. Kindness is force of habit and social capital here. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing - other regions could learn a lot from it. But good deeds don’t have the same interpersonal weight that they do in places where magnanimity equals intimacy. Its easy to meet people but once you scratch the surface you see it’s a very cliquey, small town place with lots of politics and pecking orders. Theres an insider-outsider mentality in every realm, and making true friends is tough, especially if you hate drama. People are extremely divided by race, class, wealth, politics, church, race, and anything else you can think of. Corruption is rampant in every aspect of life. Most people are from here, from close by or married/related. Huge brain drain. Too much crime. Will never be “on the map,”sorry!
