Why would some people want to teach at a rural school? Why would some people want to teach at a rural school?

I just
moved to a rural area, and it is absolutely booming. In fact so many people want to teach here
that it's nearly impossible to get a job here. This dictrict pays well, has high test scores,
and decent morale in comparison to some other districts. This district certainly has the latest
and greatest technology, as they just received a grant where all students in grade 3 through 12
will receive a personal laptop.

I think that this area is much different from
a typical rural area because it is on the Gulf Coast and has beaches and a lot of tourism. I
think that has made a difference, but it is certainly an area where many people want to teach. I
myself am hoping for a Homebound teaching position.
