When I lived in the Netherlands, I had over a month of vacation every year. That extra time was more important to me than the extra convenience of living in the US. In the US there are people living rich in material goods, but suffering in social poverty, in one of the most isolating countries on earth. If someone is socially isolated, he may be better of finding a friendlier country. If one's core values includes comfort, than the US is probably better.
Sounds like California, where the state seems to be it's own country withing a country. Isolated to international news, everyone has a car and no one mingles/walks on the streets.
