Location of med school = location of residency?

[phospho]

I think some of the reason people seem to stay near where they went to medical school is they make the mistake of ranking places higher on their ROL because they think they have a better chance of getting in there, not because of how much they like the program. I've seen people do it a lot. "I have a better chance of getting a spot there so I'll rank them higher, even though I prefer this other program." Like I said, this probably accounts for some of this apparent attachment to the region where you went to school.
