Schools need good teachers and administrators. Hospitals need good doctors and nurses. Housing needs construction labor and assurance for the developer that their investment will pay off.

We as a nation do not produce many good teachers. We do not produce enough doctors period.

This isn't SimCity. Can't just plop a school or hospital down for a fixed sum and expect things to sort themselves out.

I live in a small town 30k population. Good teachers and doctors. Living in a city doesn't automatically indicate there are goods schools or doctors. You have greater choice, but that is all.
