In terms of law markets, where would, say, Youngstown rank? What kind of lawyers work in a place like Youngstown? What are the most lucrative opportunities?

Well I can speak for the northern IN/ southern MI market which is probably very similar to somewhere like Youngstown. Most of the people who work in this area are from here and don't want to leave. They mostly work for local firms, although some large firms have small offices here. The local firms mostly do not seem to specialize in any area of law, although some do. Some of the lawyers are grads of very good law schools who didn't want to leave the area (although this is probably more true here than in Youngstown, b/c here we have ND and Mich). There are also plenty of opportunities for governmental work. Some local lawyers end up teaching as adjuncts at nearby law schools, usually the school they attended.

Subject: true story

my buddy is something of a professional poker player/trust fund screwup who has played at the casinos in Gary, Indiana.

Legend has it that along some barren, god-forsaken road in the back streets of Gary, there is an abandoned lot with a trailer home or broken-down RV or something like that. This structure hosts an "adult store" where fat, balding truckers come to fuck AIDS-infested trannies, black hookers, swingers over age 50, and each other.

And they don't wear condoms.
