I live in a small town out here in the southern rockies in northern new mexico. I moved from Dallas, TX to here two years ago.
I wanted to move here since I was a kid. Now I'm 25.
However, there are a lot of advantages. Some nice people, more trusting people, mostly 20-30 years older than me anyway.
Around my age, very few women. Most people my age or either on drugs or so religious they don't associate with others.
I drink on the weekends basically but am not into hard core drug users.
In Texas, there was a share of drugs here and there with people. However, here it is so prevelent it's unbelievable. If you do drugs, that's your business. I don't. It's one thing to try it now and then but any friends I've tried to make do them daily and hard.
It's almost made me think different about long term around here.
Anyone else in the same boat? Small town southern rockies or small town anywhere?

Lots of kids who do drugs or alcohol are either bored, neglected by their parents, insecure and/or unhappy with their lives. You are 1 of the few who sees whats happening to the rest. Maybe you should move to a bigger place. the smaller the city/town the more you notice what the others are doing, more so than a large place.
I find ppl in small towns very clickey, gossips + everyone knows everyones business lol. We moved back to the city. Maybe you should move to a larger place then you could have more of a social life. And choice of friends would certainly be bigger.
