I'm still trying to figure out my own way through it all, but a good example of this are people who live outside of the "hubs" and work regular, townspeople jobs. They earn mid-range incomes and do fine by engaging in life outside if it.
It's not a bad way to live— but it's a matter of priorities. Hell, I live in a major city, don't have a car, and work pretty steadily.
The people I've known who are construction workers, police officers, etc— they get out and around far more often than I do. And they can afford to.
