A lack of "culture" does not mean a lack of cultured people. From what I can tell, there are many, many highly cultured people that have chosen to live in TV. Most small cities and towns have a lack of big city "culture", if that is defined to mean stage and fine art entertainment. I suspect most of those cultured cities don't have many (or any) of the amenities we have in TV - nicely appointed and equiped recreation centers within walking distance of most residents, nearly 40 golf courses easily accessible, nightly live entertainment on the plazas and the beauty of the resort-style landscaping and maintenance. And, all accessable via golf cart. Add to that the mild climate and relaxed atmosphere. To me, one of the reasons, and the fun, of traveling to other places is to experience and enjoy the culture offered there. If it was all available in TV, what fun would it be to travel to NYC or any other large city, if not to have access to something not available where we live.
