Moving from one part of the country to another can lead to experiencing fascinating new cultural norms.
If you’re someone who relocated from a major US city to a small town in the Midwest, we want to hear about the culture shock you encountered.
Maybe you were stunned at how quiet the Midwestern way of life is in comparison to the hustle and bustle of your previous residence.
Or it could be that you noticed folks in the Midwest tend to be more open and neighborly than some people in larger towns.
And the values or beliefs of Midwestern residents might be quite different than what's popular in cities like Los Angeles, New York, or Chicago.
Although you were likely aware of it beforehand, it's possible you also were surprised at just how affordable the Midwest is when thinking about costs in the big city.
Now it's your turn — tell us all about the culture shock you went through after moving from a major US city to the Midwest in the comments below. Your response could be featured in an upcoming BuzzFeed Community post!
