Cherokee
6.0
Lower score (below 6)
Cherokee County is former coal mining territory in Kansas's southeast corner — the landscape still shows strip mine scars that have slowly turned into fishing lakes. Columbus and Galena have both seen decades of outmigration as the coal economy died, and what's left is a post-industrial rural county that's been economically struggling for 50 years. People here are friendly but socially the community is closed, and the dating pool is small and already well-networked.
