  I think this is sort of cool to find out that a town in Korea take advantage of being on the DMZ to actually get more support for families

  > Yanggu County, one of South Korea's smallest regions (population: 21,000), leverages its DMZ-adjacent military population (80% of residents) and healthcare innovation to achieve a 1.52 fertility rate.
