8. Gotham Is A Terrible Place To Protect
Why does Batman love Gotham so much? It's dirty, the police are corrupt, there are criminals everywhere and it's seemingly always cloudy there. When you're a billionaire playboy you could live anywhere in the world. Bruce Wayne could buy his own island if he wanted to and hire Kate Upton to serve him drinks out of coconuts all day but still he chooses to stay in Gotham. They say home is where the heart is and Batman must have one dysfunctional heart to want to call Gotham home. Gotham is NEVER peaceful. Around every corner is a new threat to Gotham's citizens and a new enemy to be made for Batman. It could be a lot worse but it could be a lot better too. In Gotham you can't even walk down the street to get a slice of without being taken hostage. Batman has dedicated his entire life to protecting this city but trying to clean up Gotham is like trying to put the sun out with a garden hose. Hey Bruce maybe it's time to do what every other person does when they are sick of the real world and retire in Florida. No one will hold it against you.
