Born/Raised/Can't wait to leave

I have moved away several times, but moved back when I had kids, so the grandparents could enjoy the children. Now I am completing college, and I am leaving as soon as I finish!
I have never liked this place. I have never been given a reason to. You can find nice people anywhere, I've seen more spectacular sunsets in other places. Those are the two selling points of this place.
The schools system is a joke, as is the county government (the city govt. is average). You're in the oilfield, or you are in a service industry.
No hunting, fishing, hiking, etc. Nothing to do except drink and drive.
A low cost of living is not worth it. If you have to be in West Texas, go to Midland. They are stuck up, but the town is nicer.
