As someone living in a very rural area, I wish fervently that my kids were growing up in a more diverse community. I love where we live. But, I hate that their school has... Idk, maybe a half dozen non-white people in it.

Probably tons of useful social skills, better intellectual development, bigger chance to earn a fair wage.
