        Some campuses have such horrifyingly greater rates of rape too… It varies from campus to campus, but it’s a systemic issue. Source

      If you want better access to healthcare as a woman, apply for schools in blue states.

      Or it could be about more than abortion access.

      Young women could just be choosing to move out of or away from states that have outlawed basic medical operations for women. College is probably the first opportunity that most people have to move away from home. And people going to college generally want to improve their lives, so why not go somewhere better?

      I’m going to assume you don’t have any form of insurance? Can’t predict if you’ll need it, after all.
