The reason you don't hear of Walmart employees going postal is because they can't afford to buy the guns they sell. And "going postal" pretty much applies to anyone disgruntled enough to go to their workplace or former workplace and put the smackdown on their bosses and/or coworkers. The term was coined after an Oklahoma post office shooting in 1986. These days I hear of it happening a lot more at factories and offices than any post offices.

One more point made by Abe. Real estate and taxes are not higher in rural areas than in cities, at least around here. You don't have to go more than 20 miles away from Tulsa and land prices drop considerably. A 1/4 acre building lot in Tulsa would cost $20K-30K, you can get 10 acres on the outskirts of Mannford for that price.
