Balesti
8.1
Lower score (below 6)
Balești is the administrative center of a commune in south-central Gorj, mid-sized by rural standards but still a small agricultural community without meaningful infrastructure for outsiders. The economic base is farming and occasional labor in nearby industrial centers. Young women who left for education and work in Craiova or Bucharest represent the departing demographic — those who remained made a different calculation, and the social options reflect it.
