Actually, it is entangled to a degree...

You need to be able to attract good teachers.

Teachers, like members of any other profession, are going to seek places that have some of those "creature comforts" and "cool stuff to do" for their time outside of work, yes?


If you had two job offers, same money, same benefits, etc... One was in rural Mississippi, the other was in rural Virginia, which one are you picking, and why?

Labeling public school teachers as "freeloaders" or accusing them of indoctrination doesn't help retain good educators.

If prosperity and progress were solely dependent on location and favorable weather conditions, cities in Wisconsin or Minnesota, which experience some of the harshest winters in the United States, would be markedly different from those in Mississippi, Louisiana, or Oklahoma. Despite experiencing one of the most severe winters in the country, Madison, Wisconsin, has consistently been ranked as one of the top 10 cities in the United States over the past 20 years.
