I feel like living in such a town would be very depressing.

This gave me big flashbacks of where I grew up. It was great as a kid, a ton of urban exploration opportunities, but I wouldn't want to live there now.

I grew up in small town. Very. Like, a few hundred people. One school. This meme is so accurate but railway picture is wrong! Too clean. XD

Old unused train tracks are one of my favourite things on vacation. It really is a journey into the past. So peaceful.

Used to have a really nice commuter rail that connected to the city, now there's a six-lane highway that clogs up twice a day.

I occasionally take the bus from NYC to a town in the Finger Lakes, and this is so true. I have been through so many towns that check off every one of these boxes.

Don't forget the Pepsi machine doesn't actually work half the time if ever.
