The Nobles of Iowa moved to blue Minnesota. The Huckinses of Oregon moved to red Missouri. Their separate journeys, five weeks apart, illustrate the fracturing of America.

It's weird how they think Missouri doesn't have homeless people. I can't get past paywall but I assume they moved into a rural area and not to someplace like St Louis.

Has to be. Even where I live in Southwest Missouri I've seen homeless people, and there are multiple shelters in my city.

We're not even half the size of St. Louis or KC.
