Why is the wealth of North America so tightly held in so few places?

Oh wow, another mexican crossed the border

HDI is a meme. There's no way Northern Mexico has a higher standard of living than fucking New Jersey.

This map seems unlikely. Here's the real HDI map.
The reason is that the major cities have the most economic activity and their size and environment prompts businesses to chose the already developed areas over less developed ones.

Okay, like one guy. I'm not OP by the way.

Is this HDI adjusted for white pride chicano criteria?

>british columbian is an anti-theist
hmm who woulda guessed

>>72771585
sometimes there are very localized things that have an affect on HDI that people might not consider at first. in my city for example we have a very strong economy and job market which helps tremendously, and in addition to having a major university, we also have a very comprehensive and cheap community college system with open enrollment. anybody enrolled in even just a single class can buy a very good, low copay/deductible insurance through the school. furthermore, the hospitals in the area, while private, are religious hospitals that are outstanding about offering financial aid to the needy. to top it all off our city has a vast network of trails, bike lines and parks. so right off the bat we are left with a city that is economically prosperous, educated, and healthy, the criteria that lend themselves to a high HDI. for the record in case anybody is wondering, the city is austin, tx.

I call into question the methodology of how HDI is calculated.
