    I guess it’s because many young adults move far away from home to get jobs in cities.

    In the past young adults probably would have stayed living near their family, so they could see them easily.

      The cost of living is too high to travel in this neo feudal world of the criminally rich. Back 30+ years ago, the cost of fuel and travel was much lower relative to wages. The poor have gotten much poorer so that a few thousand monsters can have a meaningless competition.

        Especially with how cities in the UK are effectively banning driving for anyone but the rich.
