Yes, i’m aware it might be a stupid question. But i’ve been wondering this for years and just never searched it up or asked.

tldr; money and fear

relocating can be quite expensive and sometimes barely making ends meet where you currently are is easier and less scary then paying for a move to a new unknown.

edit: this of course does not apply to all cases and i’m certainly not saying people with low income are all scaredy cats… just two human factors that play a role in not being able / wanting to move.
