I've been to Florence. If you're not working a farm, retail, or a prison, you don't have a job there. It's not a commuter town for Phoenix. Given the choice I'd live in the metro area over Florence any day of the week.

That's most of rural America. Though there is sometimes [select local industry].

True but I've lived in some rural places that were actually fun to live in. Good hiking, small batch beer brewers, moonshine, sun doesn't attempt to melt you every day, and the local Republican party isn't all Maga/Q.

Florence is just a dead eyed suburb masquerading as a rural town.
