| Comment | I moved back to Scotland with my American kids last year. Day to day it’s been a nice place to live. People are kind and the access to public spaces/parks/walking paths etc has made it easier to live an active lifestyle. My kids school is brilliant and the weather doesn’t even bother me all that much.
The thing that depresses me is that there seems to have been little economic growth since I left in 2009 and people seem generally fed up and helpless. I don’t have the answers, but when I was in the states there was a sense that you could become really prosperous without having to struggle all that much. Here it is the opposite, I’ve seen people on Reddit discussing what they think constitutes a “high” salary and it strikes me that good salaries are hard to come by here. |
