    No. Depends on the area and your minority status.

    Born in the middle of the Appalachias? You’re likely to be more poor than many “3rd world” countries with little to no access to modern medicine or education.

    Born in a red state as a trans person not in a major city? Get ready to get shit on by most people and your local government and maybe killed if you’re too open!

    Get born in the wrong parts of NC or similar? Better hope a “once in a lifetime” storm doesn’t blow through or you’ll have tons of coal ash poisoning your yard and life in general.

    There is a MASSIVE difference in quality of life across the country and it’s not all good.
