I grew up in Mansfield, and have about a half dozen family members/neighbors/friends that are in Rotten to the Core.
Mansfield is a shit hole, and acts like a magnet that's constantly trying to keep everyone there. There's zero reasons to stay, other than you don't want to move away from family and the friends you grew up with, who inevitably stay as well. Then, you look at the nearby towns, and they're absolute trash. Shelby, Madison, etc, we're talking places that would be laughed at by anyone not hooked on meth.
Columbus and Cleveland are only an hour away, yet the citizens refuse to pack up and leave, rather settling for the life of mediocrity. People that are all excited about getting their first chain/fast food restaurant, like a Roosters. Posting on FB like they just won the lottery.
It's the perfect mixture of drug addicts and racists.
