Unfortunately. Inequality and inequity of humanity is ruthless. But yeah. Not saying things should be "fair" or evenly distributed. But the game is so hedged.

I always grapple with this living up at our latitude, my specific neighborhood is wonderful and I love my community in Fargo. But the challenging access to vitamin D and lack of winter sports in the Dakotas is hard on the people here for sure, comparatively to those at lower latitudes.
Not complaining, and no plans on moving, but how do you like to deal with this?

I moved recently from a very blue zip code to a solidly red zip code
