This demographic data describes why some areas of the state will have higher costs in public services in the local government budgets AND in the state budget. Older citizens demand more services and cost more to give them services. Should we allow budgets to reflect regional demands and needed services because of rural nature of the local government or because of who lives in these rural areas? Are should we say services are provided in these areas and not in others? If want this service you travel to it or move? Hospitals? Airports? Senior medical services? More?
