I travel a lot for work, and I don’t think it’s an ‘Omaha’ thing, though for it’s size Omaha is ahead of the curve.
It seems that once a city gets to a certain size, and has the right blend of imported a holes mixed with the local a holes, it gets dicey. Add the wonder that is the smart phone to the mix and it’s pretty goddamned dangerous.
I’m not advocating you fly to Charlotte or Atlanta just to have a different frame of reference, but in baseball terms compared to those two cites, Omaha is struggling to hit ‘AA’ level.
