[OC] Percent population change in the US from 2010 to 2018 by county

I never understood the attraction of cities honestly. Don't get me wrong, I love urban areas as much as rural ones. I just don't see why one would prefer the other outside of practical reasons like jobs (which depends on the rural area as some like the ones around my are growing in terms of jobs). Sure, if you needed consistent special medical/mental health access too. But then again, cities have much larger negatives for me personally: Traffic (driving in general to be honest) sucks and the sheer amount of people is bothersome (seriously, my local Wal-Mart on Black Friday won't get as busy as a city's Wal-Mart is at 7am on a normal day). It just makes the positives of a city not worth it for me.
