The land itself is beautiful and great. But the people are divided, angry, frustrated, and distrusting more times than not when I'm down there. I'm always left with the impression of a distinct lack of community among people down there. However, I spend most of my time in urban areas, so perhaps the countryside is different.

I think it really depends on where you are. I love living in NYC, but it's certainly different than a lot of the country.
I have to admit though, that even though I see very few differences between the people in the two countries as a whole, things like this do make me pause to think about whether I want to stay here when i have a family. Used to be a no brainer that I would stay, now not so much.
