I grew up in a small town. My high school had 600 people when I was there. Now it has 300. There's just nothing motivating people to move to the area to counter all the kids moving to the city after graduating high school.
Thats a symptom of the problem and not the reason for it, the reason for the decline in numbers outside of cities is the low birth rates [in the US, Canada and Europe]. If it wasnt for immigration most western nations would have a plummeting population but instead we have positive growth. Russia is a example of what happens when you have no immigration and a low birth rate.
Luckily for the US though we have tens of millions of mexicans more than willing to hop the border and take over control in the coming decades, the end result will likely be a clone of mexico.
