BALDWIN CITY, Kan. — Young people have been leaving rural America for decades, but Mike Bosch, 34, is happy to swim against the tide.

The business, Reflective Group, sits between a car repair shop and post office on a quiet cobblestone street. All but two of the company's 17 employees are under 40
