NBC documents what has been called the greatest movement of human beings in history: 30 million persons migrated from rural to urban America in the past three decades. The program points out that a vicious cycle is in motion that affects all of the country. Rural America is losing its best hope for the future: the young, the educated. Left behind are the poor, the aged, the ghost towns. Urban America, already crowded, polluted and near the breaking point, must bear the burden of still more people coming. In telling the story, the camera crews concentrated on three states: North Carolina, Nebraska and Texas.
