At least in Lithuania, yes, very much so, but with its own characteristics. Aside from the Capital, few cities with a university and ones with infrastructural / tourist / logistical significance, the rest of the country is a wasteland of dying towns and all but dead villages that forms the political base for our current centre right populist ruling party, who's leader coincidently is a land magnate that got all of it by muscling out the farmers with mafia methods in the 90's. Meanwhile the capital is an ever bloating, sprawling mess. Only reason, which the local politologists agree on, why the country isn't rioting is purely due to the outlet that is emigration to the Western EU.
