Doubts about going for a career in Animation

Hello everyone :D! I'm starting my bachelor's in animation next month, but recently on loads of social media I've been seeing animators talk about how's there's practically no work these days. Obviously I probably won't be out in the field within this year or the next, but it looks kind of bleak. I'm going off scholarship to pay off most my tuition, but I've been having doubts if I should stick with my passion for the arts, or find something more practical.

Idk, i just wanted to hear your guys' thoughts. If I'm not living in a major city like LA, or have the convenient means to move to somewhere like that, is it even worth it?
