Imagine yourself in a nice apartment like that, in any city of your choice & assume that with Amber level effort, you can make enough to pay your bills.
MOST of us would be delighted at the opportunities to explore all that a city such as Lexington has to offer & no matter what sorts of interests you have, I have no doubt Lexington offers something new & fun to check out. Most of us, save for we real introverts, would have been glad to meet new neighbours & even introverts appreciate new people... in small doses.
For those who truly enjoy food, Amber's apartment doesn't seem far from a lot of places offering decent, even 'good' food at reasonable prices. Shoppers will find a lot more than she could easily get to from her old place.
Long story short - given the money Amber appears to have, most of us would embrace fully the opportunities moving to a larger city brings & even if you'fre dead broke most of the time, a larger city offers plenty of new things & people to simply look at.
But this is Amber & Becky so essentially, all they've done is change the paper lining the bottom of their cage from old newsprint to glossy, magazine type paper.
So many opportunities to interest more viewers, bring in more money & have fuller life are totally wasted on those 2.
