I would not be surprised, if all the royals love Storybrooke, just because they could be normal. Aurora wanted a fresh strart, back in Season 2. While she is confused about technoloy, she seems perfectly content with the quiet life. If Eric was unhappy, it was because he was alone.... which had nothing to do, with being the town finshmonger.
